Good evening,
I've just spent today chasing EMT units with some success. However still missing 156470 and 156473. There was a 156 at Nottigham Eastcroft, but couldn't see its number. Does anyone know what it might have been?
There were also several 37s together.
MTIA

One further request re today. Does anyone know what the Lumo unit was on the 12.16 Kings Cross/Edinburgh.

Many thanks again.

Trying to fill in some gaps at London Waterloo early this morning (29th October) that aren't showing on Real Time Trains.

One oddity though is 450078, comes in off 1A80 into P10 at 00:02 coupled with 450049+450022, but then then it doesn't work the next working out of P10, not the next one off of P10 either after, does it detach and stay at Waterloo?

Also other units I have no ID for:

5Y05 00+09 Waterloo - Clapham Yard
2H77 00.12 Waterloo - Shepperton
5Y42 00+15 Waterloo - Clapham Yard
2O79 00.33 Waterloo - Kingston
5A82 23+59 Woking - Waterloo
1B01 01.05 Waterloo - Southampton


Any help with the above is most appreciated even if it is just a couple of items, thank you!

450078 worked 5S05 Waterloo - Clapham Junction with 450022 so 450049 was left at Waterloo and worked 2L09 Waterloo - Basingstoke as far as Woking with 450122 which came off 5L09 Clapham Yard - Waterloo.
5Y05 159012
2H77 455901 + 455865
5Y42 455741 + 455868
2O79 455861 + 455716

I travelled through Bescot on Thursday morning on 1A14 Man Pic to Euston - a bit of a long way round, but it had some compensations.
In the yard on the left, there were two shunters parked up together, one in what looked like NSE livery and I thought from a quick glimpse was number 9780x, though I could be mistaken.
Could anyone tell me the identities of these two shunters, please - many thanks.

Any news on whether 156470 or 156473 was the unit seen at Eastcroft yesterday would be welcome.

Suspect it was 97805 and 97808, but would have to have that confirmed. (97808 being the NSE-liveried one)

Many thanks htafc.
97808 was a new one on me, but google's helped me out on that score - and helped me find recent pictures of it at Bescot.
I don't seem to be able to find any recent sightings of 97805 at Bescot though ......

Well it seems pretty certain that 97808 (08825) was one of them.
My source was trainlogger.co.uk:
trainlogger.co.uk

97808 - Class 08 / Locomotives (shunters)

97808 is a class 08 preserved at Chinnor & Princes Risborough Railway. To log your sightings and upload photographs of 97808, please join today!
trainlogger.co.uk trainlogger.co.uk

This site also shows one recent sighting there for 97805, but I can't rule out it being a mistake as all other sightings are at the Derwent Valley Light Railway... What was the livery of the other 9780x you saw?
trainlogger.co.uk

Everyone's Sightings of 03079

03079 is a class 03 preserved at Derwent Valley Light Railway. To log your sightings and upload photographs of 03079, please join today!
trainlogger.co.uk trainlogger.co.uk

Perhaps someone more in the know could advise?

97808 (08825) and 08670 are the 2 you saw I think, as far as I'm aware they are both at Bescot.

156473 was on Matlock-Derby Frid 28/10 and finished at EP.
On Sat 29th worked to Nottingham/Worksop/Nottingham on 5A06/2A53/2W02/2D03.
It was failed with brake problems at Nottingham, so would have been there the rest of the day.
No sign of it on Sun 30/10 so presumably still there.

No sign of 156470 anywhere.

Just realised I misread the original post, thinking both shunters were numbered in the series 9780x! This makes more sense. Hope this clarifies it @Roger B and sorry for the confusion.

Many thanks Rhys for the clarification re 08670, and to htafc for pointing me in the direction of 97808.
