Only 68008-015 are AAR fitted, specifically for Mk3 DVT push-pull operation.

Personally I can't see DOO being signed off for LHCS. (Yes I know they do it in other countries, but this is England).

Anyone who has left it until the last week to have a bash is a fool. It was widely reported accross forums and social media that the week of the overtime ban would be a farce. I thankfully enjoyed my last run on Tuesday with 68030, totally veg-free.

Yes, it does happen, very occasionally. What is more regular is normal unit diagrams being STP Mk3 sets for a specific day due to WCML closure, or football etc. I've had 68s on Princes Risborough shuttles, and the 2102 Stourbridge for example. A common one for football at the moment is the 1445...

Hence why the correct workings were posted, not just the booked diagrams.

Yesterdays workings were posted above in post 2105. As you can see there were multiple cross-pennine trains.

Not always, there are certain routes where two engines are required if the train is over a certain length. Also can be to transport an engine and save a light engine move. I've certainly had many tnt Re 460 trains.

Usual British Railway efficiency then :lol:

CAF397, I can assure you that is out of date already. Correct restriction mentioned above by 68011.

Probably 185 on 1U28 tomorrow.

Fitting silencers really seems like something that should/would have been done years ago if it could be done easily enough and without compromising performance. I expect the class the see occasional passenger work, but nothing regular or intensive enough to warrant fitment now. It would be far...

What work at Stoke Marcroft? They go there all the time.

After having read yet another incorrect post about which locos have left TPE, 68021 and 029 are now on Longsight after working 0B32.

Indeed that was the charter. Last service train it worked was in 2018 too. 60015 is technically correct!

Can anyone tell me the 350s on today's 1Y23 0715 ex EUS to BHM please. TIA.

I believe this will be 37401s first charter working since 2015.

Thank you. I probably had another 80 or so duds on top of that, mostly in Switzerland and Austria!
