Hello just thought you would like to keep updated. The first train to pass the North Doncaster Chord is due on Sunday with the timetable change. The two new junctions that have been created are Haywood Jn and Thorpe Marsh Jn (named after the old recently demolished Thorpe Marsh Power Station).

Here is the 1st train that will go over the new flyover

That said train won't run - DBS haven't been stabling loaded coal sets in Immingham Reception for some time now.

Also note that most of the WTT paths have 2 versions - one via the new chord, and one via the existing route as per now.

God bless, Daniel Wilson
