    TPE Nova 3 (Class 68 + Mk5s) updates and withdrawal from service

    68019/TP07 moved from Gascoigne Wood to Longsight on Wednesday but there was no move in the opposite direction. That only leaves 68034/TP13 and 68027 (Light Loco) at Gascoigne Wood (there are usually 2x full sets plus 1x light loco).

    Zifa or Mako stamper

    The UK supplier for ZIFA is Needham Inks (www.needham-ink.com) however they are very expensive if purchased new (into the several hundreds for the basic version). I believe they also keep the ink for the standard version in stock and can order in inks for the perforating versions in boxes of 10...

    TPE Services cancelled on 21/07.

    It was a reaction to an issue with 2J59 at Morley which required the fire service to attend and line blockage. It wasn’t an issue with the 802s but the cancellations and delay were linked to the 2J59 incident (which was coded MD), so will show as a problem with traction equipment on RTT. The...

    Trivia: Intermediate stations with frequent crew changes

    For TPE there are frequent crew changes at Manchester Victoria and Leeds, both of which don’t have a crew depot.

    Gascgoine Wood

    It’s being used as a location for crew training on the 68s and MK5s (out of the way so no noise complaints when the locos are running all day to power the coaches).

    TPE First Class to Newcastle

    At the minute all catering is suspended on TPE services including first class and hasn’t yet been announced when it will be returning, so it would be just a bigger seat and a bit more space with the 2+1 seating (and generally a quiet carriage). No first class lounge access on TPE services...
