Guess The UK Train Class

[HST Power]

I'll put my previous one up (I didn't post it before as I let Track Basher go instead).

 

[ainsworth74]

Would it be a 158?

 

[HST Power]

Would it be a 158?

Yes it would. It's got the old Scot Rail interior.

 

[ainsworth74]

Give me a minute or two to get a pic

 

[ainsworth74]

It's not mine and I will link to the source afterwards.

 

[Track Basher]

That is a 47

No it isn't it's a 31.

 

[ainsworth74]

Yes it's a 31! Yet another guessing thread that TB is good at

Source

 

[HST Power]

Deleted.

Was going to say 31, got beaten to it.

 

[Track Basher]

I changed my mind.

 

[ralphchadkirk]

I think Track Basher's got it - a 31.

 

[Track Basher]

OK here's another

 

[ainsworth74]

Is it a 37?

 

[4SRKT]

Class 503

 

[Matt Taylor]

Class 76

 

[Track Basher]

Our resident thumper man has got it.

Class 503, fantastic trains.

 

[4SRKT]

Of course. I've a feeling TB and I will be good at each other's turns on this one!

 

[Track Basher]

That is a DPU 55993 - 55995

I will have to look up the Class number as I cannot remember it
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Looked it up, Class 128

 

[4SRKT]

Class 128 is correct. For the benefit of younger viewers, single car parcels DMUs built by GRCW. For some years used on PW trains on the Pwllheli line when locos were banned from the Barmouth bridge.

 

[Track Basher]

Another old one

 

[4SRKT]

4-VEC or 3-TIS. Can't remember the class numbers though. 487?

 

[90019]

4-VEC or 3-TIS. Can't remember the class numbers though. 487?

My first thought was 485, but I'm not sure.

 

[4SRKT]

Anyway it's right. I have to go and do something else now, so for the benefit of posters who don't want to watch this turn into Classic Traction Tennis between me and TB, I'll declare open floor.

 

[ralphchadkirk]

Ok, here we are:

 

[Track Basher]

It is Class 485 otherwise known at LU 1923 stock.

You think current stock is old this was 61 years old at the line.

The 1938 stock has since passed this and is still in service.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Class 205

 

[Track Basher]

It is on an Uckfield service (route 88)

Probably a Class 203.

Someone get OxtedL from the other game.......

 

[ralphchadkirk]

Class 205

You got it. Shouldn't have tried something Southern with you around!

 

[OxtedL]

It is on an Uckfield service (route 88)

Probably a Class 203.

Someone get OxtedL from the other game.......

Indeed, 88 was VIC<>UCK, which of course no longer runs.

66 was/is VIC<>EGR, 77 LBG<>EGR and 99 LBG<>UCK

5 was OXT<>UCK

Couldn't comment as to which class, but you've already solved that. Ah, bad memories...


I imagine these numbers would have been shared with other services in other sectors? I've seen images of what appears to be a 66 at LBG going to CHX before?

First Transpennine class 185 I think?
