Two delights passed by Oxford:

120U Tyseley to Bristol via everywhere https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/H40853/2020-04-22/detailed was early and stealthy, says it was the NR HST but has previously been the Colas 67 top'n'tail? What was it today please?

059Q Eastleigh to Leicester LIP https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/R02121/2020-04-22/detailed was late and just got past out of sight but definitely sounded interesting. What was it consisting?

Did at least see 430V Crewe-Sohant which had Freightliner 66 on the front https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/C01828/2020-04-22/detailed

Thank you

Saw the Colas 67s pair Charlotte & Stella working back up the way from Bristol (via everywhere) to Tyseley this lunchtime. Everywhere on this trip included Newport, Westbury, Oxford, Worcester, Nuneaton, Leicester and back to Tyseley:

Realtime Trains - 144U 0708 Bristol High Level Siding to Tyseley L.M.D.

Potentially 2F37 15:08 London Bridge - Crystal Palace which left Forest Hill at 15:22. From the unit numbers you provided the 3 units could be 455839 + 455817 + 455816

Thanks but they went northbound on the Up Fast at around 15.20ish.

London Bridge-Crystal Palace stoppers were operated (predominately) by single 455's yesterday

And, usually, 3 x 455 do not run in passenger service
