1651 off Euston then 1900 off Brum. Might do some extra services over Easter (heard a couple of Preston trips mentioned).

Its a skoda therefore it's irrelevant!

Thank God somebody agrees (other than Mr 87015), although i'd rather do it over that ECML can, doesn't seem to attract the flypaper that does.

Oh and for whoever it was who posted about getting their 90 haulage in, I believe Nat-ex East Anglia occasionally run 90 hauled trains 8)

92s are hellfire! And bloody quick off the mark!

Too flaming right about the 92s. Blooming 'eck, they're quality. Anyone in the front two carriages on The Sandblower in October 2006 between Ipswich Upper Yard and Wembley EUFOC may well remember the cheers as 92003 powered up and stormed through the tunnel at Ipswich. I remember it well, absolutely brilliant performer it was!

90036 is boring now, been about to long, send 027 over there.....



If it's AC and ain't an 87 IT IS IRRELEVANT ;)

Well 87's arn't that relevant at the moment considering there are none currently active in the UK ;)

The Bulgarians are just looking after them until a few of us make enough millions to buy a small fleet to play with ;) :grin:

They were back in the day when most of the class were about regularly, had some absoulte top runs off them from London to Glasgow and everywhere in between, 87016 was always my machine but I also liked 21 and 22, Robert the bruce and Lew Adams if I remember correctly :shock:

okay then that's why classes 86,90,91 and 92 are still around.

Again your failure to detect sarcasm is your downfalling, i'm not saying theres anything wrong with them, I just don't 'rate' them 8)

Incorrect; Robert the Bruce and Cock o' the North. Proper names please ;)

I'm already working on Euro Cargo Rail's expansion. I'm sure they'd like some operations in Bulgaria...

Wonder if I can start a few rumours with that comment ;)

PS 92's are rather rateable...light engine and it's like being on an aeroplane!

92s are just pure power! What was the timing I read somewhere, 0-87mph in 150 seconds consistantly or something?
