as the regualr lincoln service relied on the acquisition of Class 180s ... it may however be re visited in the IEP era depending on how the diagramming works out for the bi-modes

90036 is currently working 5Z90 Bounds Green - Bounds Green via Grantham as a test run with Mk4s. Loco should then work the following (subject to the usual caveats):
1B86 1408 London Kings Cross - Newark North Gate 1532
1B87 1552 Newark North Gate - London Kings Cross 1718
1B86 1408 London Kings Cross - Newark North Gate 1532
1B87 1552 Newark North Gate - London Kings Cross 1718

And thence 5Y87 Kings Cross - Bounds Green.

Lots of pictures on Flickr (link will show most recently taken photos tagged 90036)- looks smart. Tone of the red seems to be a near match, which helps.

To me it is odd that they can afford to be a set down in the peak. Surprised it doesn't do another diagram like the 1748 Leeds. (Although that is a tight turnaround)
Or is the 90 taken off and the coaches do another run?

On board, back to kings x (17.21) Diagram was turned at Grantham, due to signalling problems at Newark.

No work for 90036 today, stood spare at Bounds Green.

Apparently sub-contractors working at Newark removed a fuse they shouldn't have...
Network Rail S+T were not impressed.

Loco not in traffic today.

Loco hasn't been in traffic today. 90036 requires attention at Crewe, with 90029 looking the likely replacement. I wouldn't expect any Class 90 action before Thursday (20/10) at the earliest!

The better solution would obviously be to rerebuild the 89.

It is being rebuilt. A lot of it is currently spread around the country for repair/overhaul/improvement.

Will that be a first in passenger service to Newcastle? Be interesting to see how much time it loses north of Doncaster.

For anyone up the line. A saw it earlier with the 91 still in the formation. Too far way to get numbers.

No it won't, it was a frequent occurrence in the 1990s.

Fair enough. Only ever saw then on Leeds runs in the 90s. Although had a few blunt end first 91s which is the same thing for speed.

how come it is turning at Newcastle?
Coaches are the wrong way round.
