A close up of the pumping operation at Petteril Bridge Junction on 28th October 2022. This is to empty the derailed cement tankers of their loads before they are removed or cut up. The cement is being pumped over the tracks into road tankers that are out of view to the left. This view looks east with the line to Newcastle straight on and the S&C diverging right but then reappearing in view climbing away.
