📸 Pictured: Huddersfield closure - Day 3. TRU engineers worked through the night on our HD1 compound. The crawler crane - that can lift up to 1,250 tonnes - is situated here, and will be used to replace John William Street bridge, part of Huddersfield viaduct. 🏗️ Work on Huddersfield viaduct will support the installation of additional tracks and overhead line equipment (OLE), which will enable faster, more frequent journeys on a greener railway through Huddersfield and beyond. 🚅 Customers are being kept on the move throughout the closure, and are being reminded to check before they travel at nationalrail.co.uk. ℹ️🚨
