6M38 05.00 Portbury - Ironbridge (running late) powered by 66164 slipped to a stand on the Lickey incline. Rear end assstance by 66056 and 60092 failed to shift the train and No. 66214 was eventually attached to the front. Major concern surrounded the possibility of the train slipping backwards and derailing on catch points which were closed by Network Rail to reduce the risk of a problem |
