Thanks Timbo. I was at Ripple Lane at that time. The sun was in my eyes and thought it was 66024. It was a red loco.
No idea on what it was?

Whatever it was it must have worked 0957 Dagenham Dock A.R.C. to Acton T.C. as it was heading west. Could have been a 59.
No problem. I see Mark's sorted you with the other loco (59204)

For completeness TOPS had 66030 on 6M95 leaving Ripple Lane at 14:00 yesterday to Peak Forest: http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/H10616/2017/11/30/advanced - it seems to have gone AWOL at Stoke Jn in the early hours per RTT, but not sure if it's just one of those that hasn't been reported on the system after that point.

I seen a bright shiny 66024 at acton only a couple of days ago so its a fair chance its still on stone workings in the area

Had a friend ask me about a double headed diesel consist that he has seen in Balloch (BHC) during the night, his description is that it looks sort of like mail coaches but in a kind of pastel tan, he last seen them there in the early morning of 29th November.
Anyone got any clue? I did suggest to him that it might be line cleaning but he said he has seen them and they are yellow and not the same as this.

Edit: he says he thinks that they were class 66s

The train involved was this (real headcode 1Q80).

http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/O47425/2017/11/28/advanced

Locos were not 66's but 37219 and 37421

Would have been an NR test train of some sort.

Checked again and still nothing recorded. The first one (4M91) doesn't even appear to have been activated/run - was there something else it could've been?

TOPS has 47245 and 47760 there right now (and no other 47s) - so they'd be my punt if it's going to be 2x 47s.
