The Bletchley Derailment | Jakeso

On the 3rd February 2012 a Class 90 (90046) derailed at Bletchley Junction after severely overspeeding the set of points on the line. In this video, we will find out why this happened and what was done after to prevent this from happening again, I hope you enjoy!

Sorry for this video being so late. A mix of lack of motivation, being busy and just starting college means that I have a lot on my plate at the moment, but I hope to be back as soon as I can!
