Don't suppose anyone knows if the 90s out tomorrow by any chance?

Hello all, planning a trip to Leeds tomorrow (18/2), does anyone know if the 90s will be out in action tomorrow?

Don't think it does weekends usually.

Aren't those services to Newcastle? Thought the 90s don't work north of York save for one occasion when a DVT failed
Yes, these are Newcastle services. There's planned engineering work all day today, which means Leeds services are HST and run via Hambleton.
The 90 very rarely works anything other than Leeds or Newark services now, as enough drivers are trained up to give various options with these.

Can confirm definitely on these services today, only 7 late heading north through York.
However as the question was asked at 10:27, there was little point letting the OP know items from the past
Thanks for the ones you did post.The two points I'd considered when posting that were as follows:
a) Historical record if anyone's interested at some future point as to whether the set had stuck to diagram in Leeds, or had dropped back 30 minutes (as on some previous occasions) and;
b) By posting a partial diagram, it might make people wonder if the set had started its diagram at Neville Hill depot (Leeds) today - which wouldn't be the case due to Driver knowledge (only Kings Cross Drivers sign it, and they don't sign Neville Hill).
Still, never mind...

Oh whatever- why does everyone always have to pick holes in what is written.
I answered a question - I won't bother in future. I'll keep my gen to myself
No holes picked from me... simply my response (and explanation) to the above comment.
As someone who will also provide gen at times, I reckon anyone providing any should get a thumbs up - however the thread (and others) is/are read by a few people for different reasons, and any gen is usually useful to *someone*

You implied that I provided misleading and incorrect/incomplete info.
Well in future I won't answer any further questions in case I mislead
I'm outta here
No implication at all - I'd ask that you take what I wrote at face value and nothing more...
I stand by my opinion that any gen provided (whether by both you and I in this case, or anyone who can in any other instance) is valuable.
Anyway - no offence was meant on my part. If you choose not to provide future gen on the back of it, that's your call - but it would be a shame given the above, and for those who would have found it useful!

Having met both of you at forum meals (though not, as far as I am aware, ever at the same ones) I have no doubt both of you are trying to be helpful, nothing more and nothing less, and this is just a misunderstanding. In real life conversation there would not have been a problem, I'm sure. There's no way 43094 intended his post to come across in the way you think it was.

I was watching Railcam and we saw the class 90 go past the Peterborough cams and York cams. Was quite a sight to see 90 on the East Coast. And I forget what number it was, it was blue with a DB sticker on the cab side/side of the nose.

Would any of you happen to have their workings for tomorrow? (10 March)
Much appreciated
