Hi everyone,

Just passing wembley yard can somebody ID these following locos please?
All close together: Maroon and cream 67, EWS liv. 66, DB red 67.

A GBRf 92 behind the 66 and the 67s.

A Chiltern 68 and a DRS 37 together.

Thanks!

The easy answers:

DRS: 37423
VSOE: 67024
DB Red: 67013
EWS: 66113 (arr: 6Z48 12:21; dep. 6Z49 17:10).

There were four GBRF 92s:

92010 92018 92028 92043.

Maybe someone can divine which Chiltern 68 wasn't in service when you passed?

Thanks a million.

If you have such a large volume of requests, it is common courtesy to at least divulge as to why you need this many. I've filled them in this time, but it might be a good idea to include as to why you want these because not wanting to discuss this arouses suspicion.

Bump as no joy yesterday.

Does anyone know the whereabouts or likely use of 378150 on Friday (tomorrow) and also for Saturday (as we might have more time then).

Thanks in advance.

I seem to recall these 378s do not show up on systems but if anyone has a recent sighting of it in action OR laid up somewhere this would give us some clues as to whether to hang around on windswept (ELR) platforms !. Alternative is resorting to time for a curry !. Thanks in advance.

The reason why I have been requesting an awful lot of workings is because I have this thing when I am on a rail excursion, I like to know most of the cross-border trains out of GLA/EDB and the depot movements on my local line which I am unable to see cause it does be too dark and late. If only I had access to view the TRUST database but unfortunately I do not so I rely on this thread for requesting the large amount of workings.

Happened to be at Tamworth H/L today to see 2 class 73’s on a test train fly through, swiftly followed by double-headed-top-and-tail (is that the technical term?) class 20’s with LU stock.

Can’t guarantee I noted the 20’s correctly, would they have been
20905
20096
20305?
20314?

TnT is what people say! A/c to TOPs you are correct except it was 20311 not 20305.

Thanks

Evening all; has 68 014 returned from maintenance at Crewe to Chiltern yet please, and if so is it known where it ended up tonight?

I am pondering possibly going after it for haulage tomorrow ( Monday 26th ).
