Please can someone tell me the 345 unit on 2Z08 Liverpool Street to Shenfield at Stratford today 5/8/17 at 14:03. I was too far away to read the number. Thanks in advance.

Can I bump this please.

There's 3x 37s listed as being based at Burton.

37227 is in smart Triple Grey (see https://flic.kr/p/Led2Dn - photo Resilient741). My hunch would be it was this one you saw as repainted last year and fits the "well presented" description.

Also there:
37198 in NR Yellow
37255 in Dutch (old grey/yellow engineers livery)

Can't help you with the EMT HST unfortunately - others might be able to...

Many thanks for the reply. I think it was probably 37227, as it was indeed in Triple Grey livery.

All a little confusing as the only 37 listed on wikipedia (yes, I know) for Nemesis on the class 37 page is 37123 which is listed on abrail at the East Lancs. :s

37123 is now 37679 and certainly not well-presented! Here it is at Bury on the East Lance a week ago looking the worse for wear including vegetation growing out of it: https://flic.kr/p/W31Eg8 (not mine).

I've found a more recent pic of 37227 from only a couple of months back at Burton Wetmore https://flic.kr/p/VsB1Bg (not mine). Pretty certain that's your loco.

A lot of info on Wiki - particularly when it gets to specific loco's allocations/owners/whereabouts etc. - can be very out of date/inaccurate. I've used slightly more reliable sources for this info... ;)

EDIT: There's also some info on why it's at Burton here and the Nemesis link here: https://sites.google.com/site/gwrailways227/37227/preservation ...the story runs out on this website a few years back, but seems to suggest it was bought by a private owner and is/was being restored by Nemesis, hence will be listed as 'private owner' on Wiki etc. rather than Nemesis.

Hello there :)

Does anyone know what worked 9M51 (08:00 GLC - EUS) on Friday, and what will work 1S63 (11:30 EUS - GLC) today?

Thank you :)

On a different note, does anyone know if 2N12 (07:43 DMF - NCL) is operated by a Scotrail or Northern 156??

Should be DR77908 - an SBRail Ballast Regulator.


(for future reference, you can tell OTP from their 'timing load' of 715 tonnes)


MARK

Thanks Mark - just seen it on the cams and it was indeed an SBRail Ballast Regulator (or "yellow track machine thingy" as I'd have called it if I'd not known its proper name!).

Useful tip too :)

9M51 on 4/8/2017 was 390049

Not sure 1S63 is the correct headcode for todays request. The 11:30 Euston - Glasgow shows 1S58. if this is what you're after then its 390157

2N12 was operated today by 156448 which I believe is a scotrail unit. That's not 100% though and even if that is right, it still doesn't confirm for sure who runs this service but I believe it is scotrail

Hope this helps

That be a Northern unit, but a Scotrail service. Think it's a Northern crew as well but I may be wrong.

Without starting a new thread, do the scotrail 68s work on bank holidays? I.e today?

Well you learn something new everyday, had no idea it was a bank holiday in Scotland today!.

On the plus side though

17:08 (2G13) is allocated 68007

17:18 (2L69) is allocated 68006

hope that helps

Hi all,
Does anyone know what the 10:15 LDS-KGX tomorrow (08/08) is allocated for? Also whether it will cross paths with any rail tours during its journey? Cheers!
