* For now that is.

The last SWT 450 of the 2nd batch of 17 is due through the tunnel going to Dollands Moor tonight. It should then run to Wembley somewhen on Wednesday and then from Wembley to Eastleigh in the evenings Enterprise then delivery to Bournemouth on a cold damp , quite possibly windy and dark thursday morning. Might have to take the video camera then!!!

Cheers

I hope the next order for Desiros, if there is one, is for more 444s, becuase I don't want the Pompeyites to suffer indefinately with 450s...

Was not able to see it this morning due to fallen tree at aptly named SWAY!!!
Lamposts around Holes bay were forcibly swaying a good 1-2 feet in either direction. It was foul down there, first time for ages I have seen white tipped waves in Holes Bay. 66024 with a lightly graffitied 450127 left Poole at 10:25 for Bournemouth depot.

Yes I agree, 100 450/0s, 32 450/2s and only 45 444s. But Desiros all the same, MY LORDZZZ!

Noooo any more Dessies should be 350s, get rid of those 323s on the West Coast. Loads of commuters want the new ones more.

Well by all rights they should've missed off 444044... thats taking the ****.

Are 450001 - 450127 actually 450/1s; I thought they were 450/0s, as per the original order of 450001 - 450100 which were 450/0s.


Maybe; we could swap the 458s for the 350s... then we have an instant solution for the Pompey line! Nah, wishful thinking really. And besides, the 458s add a bit of variety.
