Скачать или смотреть TAMPER SIDING DOGBOX STONE WCML *Exclusive rare track video* 153311 NR Inspection Train 4.2.2026

A very rare happening, the first time I've seen a 153 down the tamper siding at Stone, Staffordshire.

The "Bug" or "Dogbox" as they are known, was out on duty throughout the day, and we filmed her firstly on a fast run from Litchfield to Stoke going by the station, then returning through the Stafford platforms. Later, we see 153311 return back on the Stafford line, then slowly into the tamper siding where she waits for two 390s before tooting and moving back out onto the WCML.

Finally, she's off back to Litchfield, passing Meaford Road crossing.

Two Voyager units and three pendolinos are also shown.

Only my son, SJ and myself to see the very rare move! Other enthusiasts were at Stafford where their delights were class 50, 33 and 20.

Hope you enjoy the rare bug!

Thanks to Nathanael O'Connor for train info.

This might not look like a splendid night out but the weather has been abysmal, and any trip out is good these days, especially with my son, and with something rare going on like a Bug in the tamper siding, it is small things like this that help the terrible months of January and February pass with some joy amongst the grey damp misery.
