Absolutely right - 6U88: DR97508/DR97608/DR97808 working back and forth so lights will, for a while, seem the wrong way round.[/QUOTE

Many thanks for this information Chrisncal. I noticed the movement on RTT detailed as an EMU. Unfortunately when it appeared the rain was bouncing down straight into my face so there was no photo opportunity.

Struggling to find anything that matches... :?:

I am fairly confident I didn't imagine it! :D I only saw the corrugated side panels of the 66's as they passed but they were deffo top and tailing those strange looking yellow wagons. I am sure those wagons were lined up in Tonbridge Yard a few weeks back.

Just to let you know, all three are now in the can thank you. Very long wait for the first working as it was caught up in both the Peterborough and Stevenage disruptions, but that was to my advantage as it meant it had stopped raining and the sun had come out by the time they finally reached King's Cross.

Don't doubt it was real ;) Maybe something Off Route or not showing up on the systems... probably need someone like Freightmaster Mark on the case who not only knows the things that are where they should be, but also the ones that are not...!

And it was definitely 10:33? There was something going through at c.11:33, but I figured the time (10:33) wasn't a typo/error as it was around then that 6U88 MPV went through.

It was definitely 10:33. Just checked the time my ticket was printed and that confirms it. Printed at 10:18 and there is no confusion just now between Zulu and BST! :D

Here you go:

http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/O49970/2017/12/07/advanced

66719 GBLT TONB11&12 893Y072F07 D * TONB11&12
66730 GBLT TONB11&12 893Y072F07 D * TONB11&12

Schedules for vSTP workings are often incomplete, so such trains won't always show up
in a RTT location list for a minor station such as Littlehaven.

Didn't let us down...!

Although I was looking at the same list I think you may have taken this from and didn't spot this one - think I looked at it and only noticed the second time it went past Littlehaven and didn't twig that the first time it went past fitted Sarah's timings. Doh!

Hi Can anyone tell me if 156447 and 334033 will be working in the Glasgow area today (Friday) They are two of the last units I need in the area. Thanks David.
Also required is 129 on the Glasgow subway if it's about.

Do you recall what livery 66s?

Re the lights being the wrong way round, I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure you're right that it shouldn't happened. Looks like an engineers' train/track machine that was possibly moving back and forth, so the driver probably forgot to switch them over...?

Tim, I am fairly sure that they were GBRf. Wagons definitely looked like those in the referenced image. Not even sure what they are! Regards, Sarah

66719/66730 were recorded at Horsham arr 1038/dep 1042. Hope that helps.

You have to be an insider to access Gemini as it is not in the public domain

I am an insider so to speak and can access TRUST. I don't work in a depot or diagram planning/control though so perhaps that's why I don't have GEMINI.

Probably restricted to who needs to know. Perhaps somebody more in the know could assist you.
