..and a 158 today showed up on 2O70/2V90 (06:49 Worcester - Weymouth / 11:10 Weymouth - Gloucester). The only 'true' 3-car 158 in the GWR fleet too, 158798.
Rather than 165 + 166 0730 Cardiff to Portsmouth Hbr today was 2 x 165s
I saw one on the 07:30 Cardiff - Portsmouth at Trowbridge this morning too. Was unable to see if it was attached to anything else. Usually a unit detaches at Bristol for this service AFAIKYikes! still 150’s on this route.

165103 working 1P44 1830 Great Malvern to London Paddington - booked Turbo this evening as they don't yet seem to be able to keep 802s at Oxford overnight.
There was 1x 5 and 1x 9 80x overnight at Oxford on Saturday/Sunday. Can’t recall if they were 800s or 802s or 1 of each.
Good afternoon all, could someone tell what might appear on 1O99 Great Malvern - Barnham tommorow please? Not sure if Turbos run through to Brighton, long time since i've been down Gloucester area.
Won’t be a Turbo. Sprinter, most likely a 3 car 158
I saw a 3-car 150 working it a week ago, which couldn't have been much fun for the passengers.Won’t be a Turbo. Sprinter, most likely a 3 car 158
Will 5 cars run to Brighton in future ?
Any news on additional Brighton services?
Guess it's all minimal changes till the new franchise timetable change aside which hardly affects this route
13.01.20 Class 166 and 165 operated 1F22 1423 Portsmouth Harbour to Cardiff Central. Not sure if this is a regular diagram or not?
lots of pompeys are now turbo, in fact it’s more of an eye raiser when it’s not a turbo.
Oh right, fair enough.
Not sure if it's been asked before, but does a class 165 have a classified first zone and does a 166 have 1 or 2 zones?
Thanks.
No first class on the 2 car 165s - the seats were replaced a few years ago with standard ones. 166s have declassified ex-first class at both ends. Unsure about 3 car 165s.
