A close encounter with a Railhead Treatment Train. Pulled by class 66 locomotives. These trains use a high pressure water jet to blast slippy leaf residue from the tracks in the autumn. It isn’t really whole leaves which cause problems for railways, it is the slimy gunk that accumulates onto the top of the rails when train wheels squash leaves which have fallen on the rails. The slippy residue causes reduced traction and problems with trains starting and stopping safely. #trains #diesellocomotiv
