56091 in Fertis livery has now left OOC.

In its plcae 56118 and 58016 both Fertis liveried locos are booked transfer to the depot.

EWS 58048 is assinged special tests at the depot suggesting another forigin contract and at a guess maybe to replace buggered 58016.
56118 is inclear, Loadhaul 56112 and Transrail 56070 are at the depot, while 56070 is a donor loco it is unknown if 56112 will be repaired using parts of 56070, if this were the case 56112 would replace 56118. DONT SHOOT THE messanger though that part is only a guess.

EWS 37419 and 37425 are still resident at the depot while 47756 has left for scrap. D1015 is now in Maroon.

Thats all for now.

the 56 is down this sat??? in London? humm

*I rush to get acmera ready*

 

[jonb]

Its having Tyre-Turning in which case it will be inside the shed at TD...

 

[The 37 Fan]

No I am talkinga bout 56302 not 56091.

58048 it turns out is a donor loco for 58016, 58016 and 56118 due to the UK soon.

EWs liveried 37419 at OOC is allocated a charter tomorrow then store at Temple Mills.

Leaving just 37425 in London - however it is understood that one 37 when fixed at Toton (either 37402/405/422) one of them will venture down to join 37425 at OOC.

Regarding 37419's storage at a guess this may be tempory but lets say the loco will be locked away nicely and not left out for vandels after all is a good runner so that will be tucked away somewhere.

56091 was definately at TD last night, I saw it in the workshops.

 

[jonb]

Unlike 37694 . Is that a runner?

Doubt it mate - Its in a bit of a sorry state at the moment right next to a Industrial Estate........

 

[The 37 Fan]

37694 is dead and in the next few tender sales sooner or later it will be up for sale. 37520 is also on borrowed time with EWS.

Expect sooner or later another 37/4 or two to be offered for grabs by EWS as well by the end of the summer
