TOPS Requests (including headcodes, allocations, traction, etc) [Instructions in Post 2]

[TimboM]

Thanks very much- think I saw 019 at Gresty Bridge, but didn't pay enough attention, which is annoying as I need 032!

I can’t answer your original question but TOPs shows 68019 at Gresty Bridge as you thought.

Of the TPE-liveried 68s at the time sidb passed only two were reported on TOPS as being in the Crewe area - 019 was showing at "Gresty Bridge" on "TEST" and 032 was showing as being at Crewe Carriage Sidings (LNWR) - neither at Crewe Basford Hall.
A cracking aerial photo of the yard shows the TPE 68 in question parked with 47830. It's so far away that the resolution isn't great, but I reckon the 68 might have a nameplate just visible on it - which would mean it was 019 not 032, but inconclusive: https://flic.kr/p/LK29oD
The photographer did say he has more shots to post from other angles, so may get a clearer view of the 68 in due course and be able to confirm.

Out on bank holiday Monday 27th on a West Yorkshire Day Rover.
Early evening I got half of two HST sets
HST set near Leeds with 43296 on one end.
HST set heading for Leeds around 18:20 with 43384 on the rear.
That's all I can be certain of.

Thanks again TimboM - think I might have to give up hope on this one.

Quite a few from a round trip today, starting with locos.

2 x 90 (one DBS red, one EWS red) on Up Liner south of Crewe around 1250.

Around Water Orton at around 1410 there was a GBRf 66 westbound on hoppers.

What's the yellow HNRC 08 currently at Central Rivers?

Was 66742 at Toton this afternoon (around 1500)? Only saw the top of the fifth character; think it was a 2 but could have been 3 ...

Two FL 66s at Hope around 1800.

If anyone can help id any of these I'd be most grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Oh, and 2x43 HST heading into Sheffield from the south around 1745?

 

[6Gman]

And now the units ...

170 past Stenson Jn southbound around 1435?
170 past Sheet Stores around 1452 - presumably the 1441 Nottingham - Birmingham?

Voyager working the 1435 Burton - Penzance?

2W20 1850-ish Alderley Edge - wherever it goes!

Thanks.

 

[The_Train]

Can anyone tell me what the following locos worked today please?

66546
90028 & 90019

Thanks

 

[TimboM]

66546
90028 & 90019

Thanks

66546 was reported as being on 4L90 1232 Crewe Basford Hall SSM to Felixstowe South Freightliner Terminal

90028 and 90019 were on 4M25 Mossend to Daventry, then were due to work 4S47 back to Mossend.​

2 x 90 (one DBS red, one EWS red) on Up Liner south of Crewe around 1250.

See my answer above... (90019 (EWS) + 90028 (DB Red))

Around Water Orton at around 1410 there was a GBRf 66 westbound on hoppers.

66759 on 6V09 10:51 TINSLEY YARD GBRF to COTON HILL TC GBRF

What's the yellow HNRC 08 currently at Central Rivers?

08943 has been there a long time and fits that description, so most likely that.

Was 66742 at Toton this afternoon (around 1500)? Only saw the top of the fifth character; think it was a 2 but could have been 3 ...

Was 742 (743 is in burgundy Royal Scotsman livery currently ferrying very wealthy folk around the Highlands of Scotland!)

Two FL 66s at Hope around 1800.

66605 was at Hope Sidings and was due to go on 0L10 18:03 Earles Sidings (Hope) Freightliner Heavy Haul to Tunstead Sidings (which departed 18:01) - so may have been one of them. A few other 66s working inbound to hope today, though so not 100% sure or what the other one was.

If anyone can help id any of these I'd be most grateful.

Thanks in advance.

You're welcome.

Oh, and 2x43 HST heading into Sheffield from the south around 1745?

Can't help with those, sorry.

Thanks very much Tim.

Just so I know I'm looking at the right thing would this have been the one 66546 was on, just not been activated on RTT?

[nicolaboo]

Your pairs were: 43296 & 43311; 43357 & 43384.

[railfan26]

please could i check whether 2T45 1842 Gloucester to Bristol Temple Meads 1934 and 2K44 2034 Bristol Temple Meads to Severn Beach were the same unit today?

2K44 would usually be formed from 2C25 2011 Bristol Parkway to Bristol Temple Meads however looking like this became 2U32 2121 Bristol Temple Meads to Cardiff Central instead

thanks in advance

That looks like the one - although on the info I'm looking at it was activated and ran, so some glitch in the data feeds somewhere?

We'll 66546 went past Stafford around the time it was scheduled in that previous RTT link I posted and I can't see anything else around that time that it could have been. Some sort of glitch somewhere down the line so appreciate your help as it's allowed me to put a headcode to the loco. Thanks again

Morning. I’m after finding out which power cars were on the 1L10 05:28 Worcester to Paddington service today (29th Aug). Many thanks.
