Day one today of the 0823 starting earlier and running from Beverley and it is the HST so is starting from Hull! Seems like a bit of an own goal to part cancel the extension of a service on its first day.

How long will GWR be able to maintain these at St Philips Marsh now that their own fleet are off-lease?

SPM still have daily visits from the retained GWR fleet, so it’s not an issue. They won’t lose 43 years of experience overnight!

Of course. My mistake. I thought the Castle HSTs were being maintained at Laira.

Don,t think they know whats running till the day before some days let alone if its an HST or 180. it all depends whats died while out the day before and can it be coaxed back to life to run the service or not.

Sometimes Mirfield, sometimes Hull, often Niebüll
Sunday 21st has not been planned in yet. As well as 180 availability, it sometimes depends on trained crews being available and if there is a need to move people about to cover services worked by the HST, or put requests out for Rest day working, things are not always finalised until a day or two beforehand.

Is it known if the HST is meant to be out over the August Bank Holiday weekend with the St Pancras diverts or is it just going to be 180s? Cheers.
