Hello there,
I am very new to trainspotting, so please do excuse my relative lack of understanding!
I have been constructing the diagrams of the trains running between Shrewsbury and Birmingham New Street and would just like something veryfing if it's not too much trouble:
Was the unit that operated the 0647 from Great Malvern to Birmingham New Street this morning the same as the one that operated the 1041 from Shrewsbury to Birmingham New Street?
Many thanks in advance and if you need any further information just let me know!

Partially!

170513 was one of the units on the 0647 from GMV along with 153354/153356.
it detached them somewhere and worked the 1041 from SHR alone

UPDATE:
the 2 x 153's split on arrival at BHM to form the 0800 BHM-HFD while 170513 worked 0757 to Walsall

Hello All

Can anyone help me with the 700/0 that worked 9K17 0830 Luton to Orpington yesterday Thursday 4th July and the pair of class 365s that worked 1R52 1824 King's Cross to Baldock on Wednesday 3rd July?

Continuing my effort to get my two 91s on the early withdrawal list posted elsewhere - so sorry not the first time I have asked for these, can anyone advise if any of LNER's 91120 and 91132 or my last LNER HST PC 43274, will be working to or from King's Cross this afternoon from around 16:00 today? Ideally on trains that also call at Stevenage or Peterborough as I can't really spend the time and money that Doncaster or York would require :|...

As always I am very grateful for any help!

Thank you and much appreciated - my note was 09.47 rather than 07.49! so these will be the two - both in CS livery, yes.

You may still want to get confirmation of it from someone with TOPS access as I'm just putting 2+2 together........and I usually come up with 5 :E

....which then went onto Shrewsbury. That is enormously helpful, thank you!
If at all possible would you be able to confirm whether there was also a split after the 0702 from Great Malvern to New Street? From what I can make out it seems it was a Class 170 acting alone?
Many thanks again

Some requests from today - Friday 5th:

Dowlow - Bow off Basford Hall around 1415 - was it 66102?
I'm assuming the freight through Crewe Station (on the Up) around 1405 was the Arpley - Marscroft. Was it 66119?
Finally around 1425 on the Down a FL 66 - possibly the Felixstowe - Crewe. Can anyone id the loco?

Thanks.

Yes

No Freightliner 66s through Crewe (or the avoiders) at that time. If you reckon it was a Felixstowe to Basford Hall then 66549 is the most likely candidate. Where were you based when you saw it?

Thanks for confirming the first two. My error on the third - was c.1425 at Norton Bridge, so probably c.1445 at Crewe. Sorry.
