The first Snow & Ice Treatment Train (SITT) of the 2023\/24 season ran over the Bournemouth to Weymouth line on Saturday 2nd December 2023. Because of a points failure at Brockenhurst, this was running over 30 minutes late on the outward leg and was delayed over an hour on its return to Eastleigh East Yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
