Diggle Diaries: An attempt to film all daylight running freight and interesting workings from Diggle Junction. Situated on the picturesque Trans-Pennine, Manchester to Huddersfield and Leeds route, Diggle Jn lies at the top of a steep incline leading into Standedge Tunnel. Providing beautiful scenery, varied freight and trains working hard up the hill, there aren’t many better places for a bit of trainspotting.
This month includes:
- TPE Mk5 set rescued by Freightliners one and only 47
- Class 40 D213 on a birthday private charter to York
- Double DRS Class 37's on a railtour
- Quick bogey fix on a Class 37 Test Train
- Northern Belle
- And much more...
Thanks for watching!
Huge thanks to Will from @droningupnorth on instagram for the drone shots.

Think that was one of your best Luke - absolutely brilliant stuff! The FL 47 is beautiful, I was expecting it to be in FL livery like the ones I photo'd back in the 90's! Cracking video again! Keith

Thanks a lot Keith, definitely no disagreement here from me. To be honest I wouldn’t have minded it being in the old FL livery, would definitely have made it more unique!

I highly doubt that the Nova 3's will be scrapped, as they're too new. They'll most likely go to either TFW or Chiltern Railways.

@DiggleJunction 9 ай бұрын

Would be shocked if they were, they’ll no doubt just go into storage till a new home is found. Not sure who would want to touch them after the near constant issues TPE have had with the mk5’s though. Genuinely believe if TPE had have gone the Chiltern route of mk3’s they’d have had a lot better reliability.

Why are the 68s going for hope they, don't scrap them

@DiggleJunction 9 ай бұрын

TPE are looking to streamline their fleet apparently and to be fair they’ve had a lot of issues with the mk5 sets. They won’t be scrapped, they just won’t renew the lease and they’ll go back to DRS 👍🏻
