142004 is on the kirkby about to ride it on 1113.
Also 142051 is on the 1649 Sheffield and 142078 on the 1749 Sheffield cannot wair for this. As tiffany sang years ago this is my moment my perfect moment with you.
Also it appears on realtime trains all week for special and amended workings on romiley anyway. So I would say another week off this. Are who knows maybe what is true is true x 2 142 diagrams on fun fun 1649 and 1749 Sheffield and kirkby this week and next week Wigan to Blackburn and am kirkby and pm southport throughout. X6 142 x2 spare 4 diagrams. Fantastic today love it.

A 142 with a 150/1 leading is on the 09:35 Kirkby to Manchester Vic. Is that the same diagram as the 11:13 Manchester Vic to Kirkby?

Looks like all week also on realtime trains is a split at mcv at around 2240 as a stp to newton Heath so hopefully all week this one will be the same. And 142 all week ie 1113 etc

So hopefully those two diagrams on romiley remain.Got shocked over weekend when found out they ended. However have been told via various resources 142s will be on them. But as they say never assume.

Has 142004 still got a bad wheel flat? 142004 is another unit that I can remember travelling on in 1990 to Southport.

That 142 with 150105 didnt end getting split off this evening, even us at Vic and Control thought it was at the shed already, 142 had an extra trip to Stalybridge this evening. Went to the shed on its own on return, 5T22. Lucky passengers!

Today 142 051 with 150 144 was working the 11:13 to Kirkby and return, 142 004 (with 150225) was on the 16:49 from Man Pic to Sheffield (and it was very smooth with no evidence of wheel flats !), 142 045 (with 150 218) was on the 17:49 to Sheffield and 142 058 was on Newton Heath in the morning with one other. Neither were attached to any other unit.
