66508 worked 4L10 East Mids Gateway to Felixstowe through Lincoln at 2158 last night. The only Wakefield to London Gateway I can see was 66134 but that went through Lincoln at 1741

Cheers 55002
It was late having travelled up from London and saw it from the hotel room. Hence my wrong origin and destination.
Thanks

Would anyone know the status of 801 203 please?

It doesn't seem to have been out for a while ( I've been checking daily even when not able to get out at all, just to see what it's doing ) and it's one of only two LNER units that I still need for haulage - I'm wondering if the length of time since it last appeared means it's in for the crack repairs or some other thing that will take a while?

That was the one that got hit at the level crossing last year so still out of action for repairs I’d assume.

Morning all,

Can anyone ID the
481M 0319 London Gateway Db Cargo to Wakefield Europort
Saturday 05th February 2022
And headcode please.

Also there was major disruption after person hit by a train in Stevenage area.

There was 2x cl. 180s at Peterborough last night I think it was 1D81 Kings Cross to Bradford Interchange.
Can anyone ID these and were these the units involved in the tragic incident?

Many thanks in advance,

481M was 66134 4E08. I did notice 1D81 was stopped at Stevenage during disruption along with a TL unit so I assumed that was involved

Thanks.

We came through on 1Y90 later but no TL unit in the station. 1D81 was still there. No one on it if I remember but lights on.

Morning all, can anyone please identify which Colas 70s would have been at Doncaster at around 1930 last night. There was definitely at least one parked up south of the station.

Thanks for that. As I only saw one it will have to remain a mystery, but luckily those are two I already have.
You're welcome. 70805 was at Doncaster Up Decoy and left at 19:50 on an engineers to Ferryhill South Junction and 70813 was on Roberts Road and left today with 3 IWA wagons back to Carlisle. That might help with which one you saw.

That possibly rules out 805. I was on the 1A72 Sunderland to King's Cross GC which doesn't stop at Doncaster but we passed through at 1930. The 70 I saw was in what the map shows as Doncaster South Carr sidings, which is where Colas always seem to have either 56/70/track machines sat there. I see the list on another site had 805 as being in Up Decoy in the morning so likely that that was in that yard all day until it left on the working you mention 20 minutes after I passed by. It would appear 813 must've moved to those sidings from Roberts Road then, by process of elimination!!

813 was possibly at Barnetby at the time you passed. It worked there from Carlisle New Yard, and then went to Immingham and back before going to Robert’s Road later I think. Far more likely you saw 805 which was in Up Decoy Yard on the engineers train Rhys mentioned

Cant see it out anywhere at the moment
Can you confirm that 70813 on Saturday worked into Barnetby and then went to Immingham and back before going to Doncaster Robert’s Road on 2038? Much appreciated

Given that 70813 had a mixed consist on Saturday of TEA tanks and 3 IWA log wagons coming down from Carlisle, I can only assume the 3 IWA wagons were left at Barnetby and 813 took the TEA tanks to Immingham. Then returned to Barnetby light engine and then took the 3 IWA wagons to Doncaster.
