That was only on the day it happened whilst they tried to keep some kind of service. Today the 3 diagrams are covered by a 3 car, 4 car and 5 car 197 set
In the South we have a 158 on what would normally be the Canton Sunday diagram which is good as 158s very rarely appear in the South these days.

5 sets are planned to be readied today for the Marches reopening tomorrow. With only 1 set in Cardiff there will only be 1 start from there with 3 Crewe starts, 1 swapping into either the 0732 to Manchester or on the return at 0910. Having the 3 Crewe starts and only 2 finish will allow the set at Crewe ETD to return to Crewe ATC.

As long as all goes well with the reopening, Tomorrow should be:
HD01+67008 1V33 start then rest of booked diagram

HD02+67014 1W13 1V39 then swaps to 1W63

HD03+67025 1V31 diagram then works 1W96 rather than 1W63

HD04+67022 Exam

HD05+67010 1V91 and rest of booked diagram

HD06+67017 ECS ETD to Crewe ATC

HD07+67016 1W11 or 1V37 from Crewe then rest of booked diagram

Good evening, does anyone have any knowledge on 1V50's state after the May TT change in terms of it returning to Swansea, will it continue to terminate at Central or has the Canton issues been resolved? Thanks for any information in advance.

Canton capacity issues most likely, if set 1 can't get off Canton now it'll take set 7's place there ready for service tomorrow morning with set 2.
Correct, it was prepped and ready to roll, even the 197s were reassigned.

Now after multiple changes tomorrow (hopefully) sees:
67015+HD01 1W11 full diagram
67014+HD02 1W13 1V39 1W63
67025+HD03 1V91 full diagram
67013+67010+HD05- ECS Holyhead to Crewe
67017+HD06 1V33 full diagram
67016+HD07 1V31 1W55 1V42 1W96

67020 light engine Crewe to Canton.
