I'll get back to you on the blue coaches, although there are 8 motorail vans at Rugby (96602-609) I believe

'Wikipedia' - That 91 isn't a guarantee......

The way the system works with loco-hauled stock is that it shows in the system the set that was on the train that day, and also whichever 91 is on the set the day it's checked (which today was 109).

However, even if you look up the set for 22/07, it won't show you the loco that was on the set on that date, so if it's been swapped in the past two weeks (which is very likely) then there won't be a way to look up which it is....

--- old post above --- --- new post below ---

'MCW' - The DB 66 was 66138 on 6M26.
Not sure about the GB 66 - if you know where it was going I'll see if I can find anything...

'455driver' - 43053 + LA63 + 43087 on 1C84.

When I posted last night I forgot I was going to be visiting Rugby today to see Oliver Cromwell.

The Two Porterbrook Blue EMU Translator Vehicles are 6376 (south end) and 6377.
The six Motorail Van numbers are 96602/605/606/607/608/609

Thanks, Sam

Well, 66429 is currently on 4M36 Wentloog - Daventry, so that's a good candidate to work 4V38 tomorrow....

A few other en-route to Daventry also though on other freights, so you'll need to see what drops tomorrow!

It was being moved back to France, these convoys (0A06 Crewe-Wembley & 0K06 return) have only really recently started to get used a lot more. The 66s being taken back to France can use a various selection of regular freight to get them back to Dollands Moor.

http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/H20119/2013/08/06/advanced

20302 and 20305 worked it (47828 and 57308 were candidates to be put on it)

Any chance of the EWS livery 67 with 67029 on the Network Rail test train in the Liverpool area today? I passed them at Edge Hill.

Thanks.

67016 + 67026 according to the system....

Ah, I didn't see the number of the leading loco but it was silver, so I thought it must have been 029. But you've made me look closer at my Platform 5 and I see 026 is also silver (rail blue was never this complicated ;) )

Thanks for the gen, fantastic.

Does anybody know which Bendydildo operated the 1943 London Euston to Wolverhampton on Tuesday the 6th please?

Also on the same day at the same time, saw an intermodal train hauled by dual 86s slowly venturing south near Willesden and the Flying Banana trundling north just past Watford Junction. I presume the formation of the yellow devil hasn't changed since July, but does anyone know the 86s - or the service that ran, please?

Cheers in advance. :D

86s were on 4L92 Ditton-Felixstowe, with 86605+86610 at the helm.
NMT was 43013 (north end) and 43014 on 1Q27 Derby RTC-Derby RTC.
Got these both at Nuneaton earlier on in the day.

Thanks, Sam

The HST allocations were taken from www.hstgen.co.uk - always worth a look!
