Been on it since 19th July. 6L48/6X41 is one of those flows that can have the same loco on it for weeks on end. 711 had an exam at Tuebrook over the late August Bank Holiday weekend, so is likely to stick around for a little while yet too. If TOPS is to be believed it has a C Exam up next, so after this stint may get replaced.

Never knew that GbRF could do loco exams at Tuebrook Sidings.

HST set OC32 - Powercars 159 (1st End) and 170. I’m on mobile so can update with the trailer vehicles a bit later.

Presuming you’re talking about today of course!

I don't make a habit of asking but on this occasion any help would be very much appreciated. So can anyone with access to a magic box please see if it is possible to ascertain what is allocated to a light loco working tomorrow (Saturday):

08/09 11:40 Bartnetby Sdgs Colas Rail - Toton North Yard

I suspect it will be a 56 and would very much like to know which one to help in deciding whether I need to go for it. Many thanks in anticipation of any help that is offered.

Someone will be able to let you know tomorrow regarding 0C77 as today's too early for an allocation. There's also an earlier 0C52 planned to Doncaster CHS. This afternoon, however, TOPs showed the following at Barnetby: 56087, 56094 and 70811. HTH for now:D

Thanks very much Chrisncal54 - much appreciated... Sadly the much sought after 56090 isn't in that bunch so I guess it'll be a bust for me anyway.

Thanks again Chrisncal54 - I suspected it might still be on Basford Hall after its mission to rescue the dead one from Peak Forest and move it to Longsight earlier in the week, but I was just hoping... ;)

A light locos movement southbound through Crewe around 1330 - a 67 + ??, both in DBS red. A move off the depot?

Up I/modal through Wilmslow around 1358 - possibly 66172 but not sure ?

Down I/modal through Sandbach around 1823 (FL 66) ?

These two Colas tampers were photographed there yesterday (moving around) - those perhaps?

Thanks again TimboM, they certainly appear to be those.
This is going to sound pretty daft now but have you just done a simple google/flickr search for those? If so, what information did you put in as whenever I do that I never seem to get the responses I'm looking for?
