    When are the rest of LNER's Class 91s being repainted?

    Just seen a photo of 101 in service today. Didn’t realise it had left wabtec. Did it take a set with it? Hoping to see another one in service soon!

    When are the rest of LNER's Class 91s being repainted?

    They’re all going to be done through time. So far 91101, 105 & 127 are the only ones done. 101 still in the works. 91110 & 111 won’t receive the new livery.

    LSL HSTs

    Thanks for this info. I’d seen 2 mk3s had been took down to Eastleigh but I wasn’t sure if this was for LSL. Definitely going to be interesting to see what happens with the sets. I think they should try get more power cars if they could, be good to see a heritage hst set!

    LSL HSTs

    Thank you all for your replies! Was 047 intended for Pullman spare? It’s a shame LSL haven’t gone for the 43006&112 that are sat at Ely.

    LSL HSTs

    Hi all. I’m just wondering if anyone can help me out with a bit of information. I’m aware 43047 has been repainted into Pullman blue livery as a replacement for 43055, can anyone tell me what the issue with 055 is? Also with the staycation set not needing to be used this year, what will happen...

    How are Class 800/801s towed?

    I know 66751 was the loco involved in hauling them about when testing was going on. It didn’t need a barrier wagon as it had a coupling adapter fitted if I remember correctly

    Livery of 221143

    If you look on Flickr there’s a photo of 3 coaches from 221143 being hauled by 221101, it shows 143 in unbranded livery. Believe it hasn’t been out in service since it’s accident and is now off lease from Avanti. Hope this helps 1655737883

    LNER Mk4 livery.

    Are any of the 91s getting the “new” livery? Or is 119 getting a repaint?

    EMR class 156s for Northern

    It was out New Year’s Day too. Photo on Flickr of it. As for 479 it can stay down there we could do with 401 or 415 to add a bit of colour lol

    Class 156 DMU vs Class 158 DMU - Which Is The Better DMU?

    IMO it has to be a 158! I prefer the 1587xx and 1589xx batch as this is basically what I’ve grown up with! However I don’t dislike the 156s just personal opinion is the 158s! If we’re talking liveries Northern Spirit for 156s & TPE for 158s!
