Locomotive hauled Sprinter, February 2006

Sprinter railcars are self propelled, but can be hauled by locomotives through the use of a special transition coupler. Here two broken down Sprinters were in the platform - 7002 and 7008, along with N453 waiting to take them away. The EDI Rail crew had a bit of difficulty getting the transition coupler to fit - necessary because of the different coupler types

Fitting the transition coupler to Sprinter 7008, so that N453 can be coupled up
