I’m planning to go on the Leeds to Carlisle via Settle line in late August, as you can probably tell by my username, I’m a big 153 enthusiast.

I know the line is predominantly worked by Class 158s. But are there any Class 153 diagrams?

Both the 0918 and 1049 from Leeds are booked 153+158 as they later work the 1649 and 1819 out of Leeds

I was on a pair of ex FGW 153's operating the 10:49 off Leeds a couple of weeks back. Not sure if they're doing the route on a regular basis.

Last Saturday (11th), the 14.04 from Carlisle had a pair of GWR green 153s. Many of us saw them at Ais Gill while we waited for Galatea.
