And I will be honoured having been on it if this was the last one but I won't bank on that just yet!

Will they be needed the bank holiday weekend as I was told trains terminating at Radyr? They will need less units if that is the case so 28th May be the end if they continue beyond today. Trying not to speculate... Honest.

Great thanks that explains it. I guess no 143 on it tomorrow as well. Annoying to arrive one day too late for a final thrash on a mainline pacer...

Thanks sd0733 I assume that means the morning Swansea to Pad services are running so I will stay in bed. I appreciate your help with this. 1620965051 I am a bit thrown as realtime trains is showing the 0708 in platform at Swansea when it hasn't left Carmarthen!!!!

That would be great if you could post gen on whether ecs runs for 0708 and if a 143. If not I will go back to bed. Perhaps they will put a 143 on the Bridgend to Newport instead! Thanks for your help.

Thanks sd0733 I guess I will have to set the alarm for 5am to find out. It appears the 1722 and 1822 Swansea to Paddington are running this evening so the 0720 could well run tomorrow. It looks dodgy there will be a need for a 143...

Is the 0708 from Swansea tomorrow likely to get a pacer tomorrow morning as there seem to be more ICT workings to Swansea this afternoon? I am not sure if this working depends on whether the 0722 to Paddington runs.

Thanks Dibbo.

What I hate about not being priv and not being able to afford walk on fares is having to book in advance. So I book an advance for the Swindon to Bristol shuttles today only to discover the HST has been sent to Newcastle so money duly wasted. Can any kind soul advise me of what unit I have...

Excellent. Many thanks for that now I know how many I need to view before I know I have seen the lot for the day.

OK thanks very much so I can expect a few pairs next Sunday.

Can someone please advise if the trains are singles or pairs? I gather on weekdays pairs only work on Northern at peak times. So do pairs work Wirral and Northern weekends? I assume this won't change 17 May if timetable remains the same.

Does anyone know the Cross Country HST diagrams for Saturday 1 May please? I gather they are all diverted via Newport between Birmingham and Bristol so this will affect arrival times. Many thanks for any assistance

You are selective in being blinkered as to what you want to see. It is no improvement for those in Luton and Bedford. What is untrue about Bedford losing an hourly direct service to Leicester and Nottingham when the new timetable has you changing trains twice to get to the latter? Look at the...

Do you always condescend people? Typical response from someone not impacted. Slags off the affected people ignoring the issues and expecting people to be content with long festers. If I am up in Lancashire and Yorkshire or further north it is unlikely that I can make the 1950 so it will have...

For those Bedfordians who have felt that EMR don't want their custom then this timetable reinforces it from the snippets I have seen. Every government bleat on about putting more people on public transport and taking them off the road but EMR don't seem to agree. If you are up north and want to...

Thanks for this. I gather the 0926 was back to a 222 yesterday but then the 1105 St Pancras to Nottingham was a HST.

Indeed they did as went to take a look. I believe they went through to Sheffield Friday evening which they did not do the previous two nights on the 1810. It will be interesting if this was just temporary or will become more regular. I assume it has come about because of HST sets coming out of...

Morning. Am I to understand the 156's are doing the 0926 Corby to Derby this morning?

Thanks for this excellent round up. At least I can say I had 002 and 073 on their final workings.
