Can anyone please ID the leading DB 66 which came off the Edinburgh suburban line, today (1st May), heading west or north. It passed Haymarket West Jcn at 1445 and the trailing loco was 66007.

Pretty certain it was 66050, as it was paired with 66007 all day; initially working 057X from Mossend to Millerhill (arrived Millerhill 12:04), then 667U 15:14 Millerhill to Forres Loop. The only discrepancy is 667U is showing passing Haymarket West Jnc at 15:38...?

They came up from Millerhill S.S. Sunday pm on 690R - d.Millerhill 18:02, arrived Rose Street just before midnight.

It was a VSTP, which is maybe why it's not showing up in certain places.

1A69 14:41 Glasgow Queen St - Inverness

I know that 170427 is at the front, but 2 x 158 joined at Aberdeen, one of them divides off at Inverurie. Does anyone have the numbers of the 158s?

Thanks. Is it usual to switch sets at Salop in that way?

6Gman · 2 May 2017

Today - Tuesday 2nd

66 south through Crewe (Platform 6!) around 1530 with a single hopper - presumably a poorly (or newly made better) wagon en route from/to somewhere?

TIA

The only matching workings I can find around that time haven't got a loco attached I'm afraid
Also I'm not sure about your other question; it's not unheard of to attach/detach things at Cardiff but I haven't heard of it happening at Salop - it's probably for stock balancing after the B/H

Have no idea of the loco, but it could have been 6F94 17:32 Crewe IEMD to Arpley Sidings as this ran around 2 hours early departing Crewe at 15:36.
