Hi there, would someone be able to confirm the unit used on yesterdays (10/12) 20:45 London Euston to Watford Junction please? It should have been a 710. On such a short journey, forgot to check which specific one!
Thanks in advance

Any kind soul able to let me know the set number of the class 345 that worked 9U67 1628 Read to Abbey Wood on 9/12/2022? And was it 345051 the set that worked 9U29 1931 Heathrow T5 - Abbeywood service the same day?

No doubt a stock move connected to a charter service.

Don’t have an allocation for that on Railcam but guessing it was a 710. 378s can also be seen but only occasionally now.

Hi, I've just seen a XC HST set pass through Torquay towards Paignton. 12.20 today.
Can't remember seeing an XC HST down here and only 4 car voyagers showing on RTT.
Any ideas please?
Just thought- could it be going to Goodrington sidings for Xmas?

To quote a contributor to WNXX forum this morning

"Due to late running 1V44 terminated at Newton Abbot to form 1S51 and due to operational reasons ran ECS to Paignton and back"

It will have been 5S51 (which was 1V44 which was terminated at Newton Abbot). 43303 43285 XC03.

Hi All - can anyone help me with the 700/0 that worked 9Y92 1622 Sevenoaks to Welwyn Garden City on Wednesday 7 December 2022? As always, thanks very much for any assistance...

A request for a 700 with my 700th post gives a neat symmetry

 

[Mr T]

Afternoon,

Appreciate this might be a long shot, does anyone know which 379s are parked up at Aldersbrook Sidings, please? Passed in the dark on Thursday 09/12 and counted about six units. Real Time Trains shows no movements in or out since so I'm confident they won't have changed. Thanks in advance.

Not quite sure why the two quotes have ended up 'nested' though...

Can anyone tell me why 5W01 Manchester Victoria to Ardwick TMD ran just now? I live in view of the Ordsall Chord and was shocked to see a train today as I thought Victoria was closed?

I don’t have a vast knowledge of the railway so apologies if it’s just a normal movement, but interested to know why it ran…

It was a VSTP (Very Short Term Plan) ECS (Empty Coaching Stock) move which there have been a few of today to get stuff back to Newton Heath and Ardwick depots.

Thanks! Any idea where the unit had been - had it been sat in Victoria since last night? I tried having a look on RTT but couldn’t find much.
