Miracles do happen.
Hi, anyone care to update the DRS fleet status soon as in all the locos.
That didn't take long for DRS to store 37261, was it something major?

It amazed me that 37261 was returned to traffic as it had a lengthy period in store.
Thank you for this list
I presume that those shown as allocated to BH and ZG will be reallocated to KM when/if they enter traffic
In addition I include 96371 in the DRS Coaching Stock allocation (even though this generator vehicle is treated by RSL as a locomotive)
It is at present used by Wabtec at Doncaster
Although still in the Eurostar GPSG pool, I understand that it was sold some years ago to DRS but it might have now been sold on by DRS
It would be interesting to know who is the current owner

96371 is at Wembley, it's 96374 at Doncaster Wabtec and I believe is now Wabtec owned.
DBSOs may just be spares!
Thanks, Sam

Have today received confirmation that all the above are KM allocated as is 5787 just transferred to XHSC but at Crewe
Brian
Sorry
I agree that 96371 is still at Wembley
You could well be right regarding the onward sale of 96374 but as 96372-75 were sold to DB Regio it is possible that it still is theirs for it is usually with the DB Regio Chiltern Mark 3s when in use at Wabtec

57010 DS XHSS EH (not ZG)
66423 DS XHIM KM
Both locos are currently in Eastleigh Works (ZG).

TOPS needs updating, both, as of 16:00 today, were down as "EGHT RSMD" which is Eastleigh Traction & Rolling Stock Maintenance Depot!
If has put 66423 as "ZG" because it is active in one way, although currently not in traffic, it is allocated to the XHIM pool which regards as active.
Thanks, Sam
47712 is used as a carriage heater at Crewe. She has scrap wheelsets I believe. Couldnt head out on the mainline in anger if she wanted.
Last seen heading towards Crewe from Wembley straight after delivering the DVTs last Thursday?, no idea where it is right now though can check later (if I remember!).Not sure where 66423s now located, but it did leave Eastleigh for Willesden last week.
May not have returned back to "offical" use with DRS yet as yesterday TOPS was showing it as at Crewe Gresty Bridge.
47712 is a carriage heater at the moment but should at any point in the future be heading to Eastleigh with 47747
I will update the stock list later, currently busy!
Thanks, Sam
are both 47712 and 747 at crewe gresty bridge? Care to update the table again.
Yes they are both there, 47747 is outside (I believe next to the Nantwich line) but 47712 is inside.
I will update over the weekend when I next get access to the internet, currently having problems within the family
Thanks, Sam
