I'm not familiar with barrier wagons. Only these FNAs are used for the transportation of these flasks, as far as I'm aware. It's a different wagon for the military flasks.
@@NorthumberlandSnapper Hello, I was a Guard back in the 70s and would pick up Nuclear Flasks from Bridgewater out of Hinckley Point power station, a single flask would have an empty wagon each end of the flask, and in the event of a derailment the Guard would not go to the driver to discuss things, but walk away to seek help.
Well done Tom good angles and nice scenery lovely shots of Morcambe Bay and distant views of Heysham.thanks Brian
Many thanks.
Cool clip with the 68s accelerating away from the TSR beside Grange signal box.
Glad you like.
Are barrier wagons not used any more ?

@@exb.r.buckeyeman845 Ah right, I see what you mean by barrier wagons now. No, there's none of those anymore.

Yes, I always do a bit of scene setting first.
I enjoy the scene setting. Gives context. Plus a lovely part of the world.
It is beautiful.
