It’s not going down without a fight! Obviously doesn’t like the thought of the national rail museum.
It must know it's off to the vets!

Still on one Power car leaving Bristol Parkway and approaching the Severn Tunnel.
Signal problems between Didcot and Oxford mean the 11.22 to Great Malvern is currently running 25 minutes late and getting into the territory where it could get terminated in Worcester, due to lack of time to shunt to Malvern Wells and back.

Thankfully I haven’t passed Droitwich yet so I can change there for a Shrub Hill service.Cancelled on the screens at Foregate Street. Will terminate and start at Shrub Hill according to journey check.
Yep, can confirm it will terminate at Shrub Hill according to announcements at KGM.Cancelled on the screens at Foregate Street. Will terminate and start at Shrub Hill according to journey check.

Yes...healthy acceleration again. Unless they have configured the front power car to uprate IET style when the other power car shuts down haha.I'm hearing reports Sir Ken is now purring again?
Just don't shut it down at Pad.!!
Looking on RTT says that the 1P61 will still be calling at Kingham at 1555. Please can anyone confirm if this is the case as it was terminated at WOS and not GMV. I was wondering if it may come through earlier to make up time or something but has terminating it earlier done that by itself?
Thanks,

Oh OK. Thanks very much for that one! I'm excited and sad that I'll be riding on the last Cotswold HST this evening as well. Is anyone else doing the same?Should go through as scheduled, removing the last few stops just gets it back on schedule from Worcester, rather than having the return leg heavily delayed too.
I'm seeing on gwr twitter account that 1830 is going to be p8/9 at pad now. So no more p1-4 lineup then?
One engine only.May I ask, what does "OEO" mean? I've seen it used a couple of times here.
Update: according to the travelling fitter...the batteries in 43002 are not charging from the 415v supply and there is a risk of them going flat which may have consequences on our ability to get back to PaddingtonJudging by the progress of the return journey, it appears that 002 is back in the game.

Utter dribble. Age has got no bearing on the reliability of one power car against another, especially when one is 43 years old and one is 37.43002 was always going to be the biggest worry, being the oldest one of the lot, conversely if you're going to pair it with another loco, than 43198 is probably the best to, being the youngest.
