我们的直升机拍摄的醒目图像突出了过去一周风暴Christoph的影响。

我们的敬业空运团队is surveying the railway as floodwaters recede across the North West after Storm Christoph.

Initial signs show railway lines left submerged in recent days in Cheshire, Lancashire, Merseyside and Cumbria have little or no lasting damage after the extreme weather.

We’re carrying out sky-high inspections of the track on the西海岸主线从伦敦到苏格兰,以及英格兰西北部的其他航线。

Back on the ground much of the railway network is now open to trains as normal.

风暴和洪水如何影响铁路

The effect of flooding on the railway and what we’re doing to reduce it

Our extreme weather action teams used high volume pumps during the storm to clear floodwater. This minimised damage to track, signalling equipment, cuttings and embankments.

Phil James, route director for the North West at Network Rail, said: “I’m extremely proud of my teams who’ve battled horrendous conditions to keep the railway safe for passengers and freight during Storm Christoph.

“我们投资了数千万英镑,使铁路更加强大,所以当这种情况发生极端天气事件时,它可以应对。似乎这项准备工作在地面上已经支付了今天的直升机检查,最近几天由无人机拍摄的天空和其他航空照片的直升机检查。“

Recovery underway in Wales

铁路的大部分地区正在进行大规模恢复努力威尔士following huge amount of heavy and continuous rainfall brought on by Storm Christoph.

我们正在工作一天,晚上清除Lydney的Landslip的碎片,在Chepstow和Glouestershire之间的界线。

Due to the hard-to-reach location of the landslip, rope-teams are working their way down the embankment to remove loose debris and earth with the use of hand tools.

The clean-up at Lydney is expected to take a week and Transport for Wales is providing a rail replacement service from Newport to Gloucestershire.

其他地区威尔士&边界由于洪水之后剩下的伤害,途径必须关闭,特别是在北部和西北部。

We're assessing significant damage at Knighton, on the Heart of Wales Line, and multiple areas of storm damage between Dovey Junction and Pwllheli, on the Cambrian Coast Line.

在周末进行进一步调查,以确定线路何时可以重新开放。

Meanwhile, there have been several washouts of the track on the Conwy Valley Line, between Llandudno Junction and Blaenau Ffestiniog, which will require clean-ups or repairs.

与此同时,我们在1月22日大雨淹没了赛道后,在1月22日,我们重新开设了罗瑟勒姆中部的线条。

当Storm Christoph击中约克郡和河流开始上升时,这些线路于周三20次关闭。在铁路淹没之前,在Meadowhall和Swinton之间断开了信号线和转向火车,在铁路淹水和轨道部分下面是水。

我们的团队不知疲倦地向水泵泵出来,进行安全检查并重新连接信号系统,为恢复服务准备服务。
