They will be used to help with stock shortages

Sadly, storage

 

[superkev]

Another path to Kingsbury. Didn't know there was a previous one.
What's at Kingsbury, storage, scrap, export?
Thanks
K

Answering my own questions Kingsbury is the home of EMR Kingsbury metal recycling.
Anyone know numbers of the units going to both EMR Kingsbury and Sims recycling Newport docks as mentioned earlier in the thread.

I think you've been misinformed.

 

[IamTrainsYT]

Apologies for the amount of replies I made, I thought the site wasn’t posting the replies however it turns out it went onto pg61

No numbers yet, I believe the Newport one will be cancelled

Oh...

If (and I appreciate that's a BIG if...) the units heading to Wales DO see use, number 49 will cause anguish to those unsuspecting Valleys passengers!

 

[amwells]

Is the path(s) and timing available for the move to South Wales?

142 005 what is left of it.This Morning.

The spattered loo roll still on the headstock makes me think that's the DMS, 55546 vehicle.

Not yet, if I see something I’ll post it here

 

[IamTrainsYT]

The run to Newport sims was cancelled today

thank you.

I wonder if the units will go from Heaton to Worksop first?

 

[HSP 2]

Some of the jungle drums around here have been getting a bit of a bashing, all to do with two ECS moves on Sunday 15/12/19. The first is 5T42 Wigan Wallgate CS, and the second one is 5T43 Blackburn King Street.
I have heard that they are going to be trains of between three or four 142s going to Barrow for cold storage.

Has anyone any news on this.

 

[IamTrainsYT]

One is based out of heaton depot and the rest Newton Heath, they may swap around though

It’s pathed as sprinters and could be exactly that, barrow cs is an active northern depot

 

[IamTrainsYT]

If anything they could be warm stored there

 

[HSP 2]

Yes Barrow is an active depot that has just had a lot of work done on the two or three back roads that have not been in use for years.
Not all trains that are pathed for sprinters get sprinters, the Bentham line is a case in point.

 

[IamTrainsYT]

And the new mills trains that are almost always double pacers!

If you've been to Barrow nothing could be warm stored there.

3 of the better ones and the cold bus seated ones are still running around looking in an awful state

I wouldn't' be surprised if mechanical condition has more to do with it than seat design.

At least I can remove that one from my list of mileage needs, the one which got away.
