That’s a good video, and it’s captured well the nodding of the units along the less then perfect track of the lovely Wensleydale Railway. I don’t think they would have ended up in Whitby!

Is it just Monday to Friday that Class 142s are used now?

 

[warwickshire]

Yes mainly peak hour use only. Monday to Friday. However some workings may go on through day 6 units 2 spare. 4 diagramms these might change each week. Last week 2 on romiley line throughout day. 1 kirkby throughout
1 peak am kirkby and pm southport only.
Wait and see Monday and Tuesday etc for this week's sightings to see what is diagrams this week. Believe mcv side this week it changes again. But these could remain until may. Ie due to blockade accrington area. Ie kirkby day diagram one ie change could go to Blackburn to Wigan . Instead. Ie no longer day kirkby. And romiley ones could remain a little longer till 150 can replace them March ie iff 769 on alderley etc. Then they could go mcv side final
Final days. But we don't know for sure. Nothing can be guaranteed. Each week now especially March to may tt change its just a case off each week and every week find out or await reports or gen on sightings or unit info for that week as it begins because usually it should set up the information for the rest off that week. Later on today in a bit we might no more for this week. As we await reported sightings.

142051 156428 on am kirkby today peak time.. but the daytime ones only 150128.
However also today no 142 on any Blackburn to Wigan. However on 1736 mcv to southport was 142078 and 156428..
With 142078 tonight detached at southport.
Looking like it will stay overnight and then form the 0648 to Blackburn tomorrow. And not work tonight back ecs to mcv in which has done in past. So today a little less activity on the mcv side. And sadly another short form 150 only no 142 situation yet again. Typical.

According to the northern fail app it's the 0750 from new Mills Central arr man Piccadilly 0823. Which was before the February the 14th the ecs then to Marple for the 0853 ex Marple. Which yes which was ecs to newton Heath T.M.D ie the am 142 peak Marple which now is no longer with us. See separate thread kirkby line this week is in total dispear to many cancellations. No stock again 142s issues. Again those 8 should never have gone. Also this week involving the 2049 Sheffield I have been informed that the train like last night can split early at Manchester Piccadilly and 142 can go ecs to newton Heath T.M.D before 2040. Or remain on train throughout and go to newton Heath T.M.D at usual time off. 0030 etc. Dependent iff involving 2049 and 2247 from Sheffield if northern are doing any 150 swaps and exchange via Calder valley like Last night.

[323 Class]

12.40 Man picc to Rosehill was a pacer.
Hoping to catch return at Romiley.
Edit Romiley (13.23) 142004 & 150147 Rosehill to Manchester Piccadilly

 

[323 Class]

13.19 Man Picc to Newmills Centra l at Romiley (13.45)

 

[warwickshire]

There does appear to be two diagrams on this this week same near enough as last week However am ecs comes from newton Heath via Denton to chinley. Looking at rtt next week looks same as last week. How far into March this goes is anyone's guess.
Iff 142078 is out and about like on the kirkbys last week. Wonder iff any mad frantic rush will occur for those few odd seats that face the right direction in travel on the right hand side off travel. It got quite comical watching the fallouts over who got to those few seats first. So at. Least for now the romiley x2 is still going.

14.42 Romiley (Newmills to Manchester Piccadilly has 142045 leading

I saw the 09:35 Kikby to Manchester Vic this morning. It was formed with just a 150/1 instead of a 142/150 combi that was usual in recent times.

But as we know 2 150 could also appear. However after March 6 it could be just the two north side m

however info pls 142078 which was on am kirkby, terminated at mcv platform two at around 1746 with 156460 due to a unit fault and 1736 to southport was cancelled unit fault. hope 142078 hasant issues, it has only just came back having two days on top off 142090 on the buffers

 

[deltic14]

142 004 was stabled with 142 090 on Newton Heath by the Rochdale line as I passed by on the 16:17 from Blackburn. 142 051 and partner also worked the 19:49 Pic to Sheffield.

 

[warwickshire]

142004 is probably at rest had had a very active constant workload past few days on the romiley line. However did you notice was 142090 still on the buffers or had it moved around the sidings
