Heathhall Sub-Station Explosion
There was a big “bang” in Dumfries last night as the electrical sub-station on Tinwald Downs Road had some kind of failure. My Mum stays right across the road from it and says that there was a huge blue flash outside her window and her Television went off. It then came back on but a few seconds later it happened again. Again through her TV was back on within seconds. The Fire Brigade did attend but were not their for long so it looks like there wasn’t much permanent damage done, but my mum, and I’m sure plenty others in the immediate area, was pretty shaken up but it!
