The Photos Were Taken On Sunday 21 June 2026 . A Complex Recovery Operation Has Begun To Remove The Damaged Trains And Carriages From The Railway Before Engineers Assess Any Damage And Complete Necessary Repairs. The Overhead Line Equipment - The Electrical Wires That Provide Power To The Electric Trains - Must Be Removed While A Temporary Access Road And Concrete Foundation Is Constructed To Support The Operation Of A Crane. Two 110 Tonne Rail-Mounted Kirow Cranes Will Then Lift The Trains And Carriages From The Site Before A Road-Mounted Crane Moves Them Onto A Low Loader - A Heavy-Duty, Specialised Trailer Designed To Carry Extremely Heavy Equipment - To Be Transported Away By Road. Following This, Engineers Will Then Assess The Track And Make Any Repairs Before Reinstating The Overhead Lines And Completing Final Safety Checks Ahead Of Reopening The Railway.
