67029/HD01 booked for it
It may be reversed at Canton so Loco will be leading from Chester.

The loco is on the Manchester end of the set, so the loco will lead into Chester then the DVT will lead to Holyhead.
Not sure what you mean by reversed at Canton.

A few moves and swaps planned for this week:

Tomorrow should see 67008 come off HD07 after 1V39, 67015 will then go on and work 1W96.

Wednesday should see 67014 come off HD04 after 1V39, 67008 will then go on and work 1W96.
67016+HD05 are planned to work across from ETD to ATC following repairs, will then go onto its B exam, only HD02 hasn't been done then so all operational sets will be done in this cycle.

Thursday is planned for 67012+HD06 to re-enter service following exam. As HD05 hasn't been out anyway this at least gives an extra set available.

Thanks

Today at Crewe depot (23/6/25):

67025 light engine.

67012 connected to HD06 which had break issues and had electrical issues. I couldn't clean it as a result. Last time i saw 67012 was when I was still in the grey colours. Strange seeing it in black.

67015 is already on set 7
For 1W13

Can I say how shiny 67012 looks. Shiny wheels and bogies. The paint job is excellent. Ok it's got a bit dirty now but I'm still impressed with it.

Fantastic. Out in the morning I assume for HD06.

What time is HD05 due in please?

Yes, should be out on 5V33 at 05:13.

Its likely to be mid-late morning I believe.

67015+HD07 also at Crewe tomorrow for some TLC from DB.
