Please use the thread in the diagrams section of the forum for diagrams, and this thread to discuss progress with the rolling stock. Thanks
Can anyone tell me for sure (not just guessing) if there is any co-ordination between train crew rostering and traction rostering? There seem to be a lot of cancellations because of lack of crew. I understand a lot have yet to be trained but why put out sets that are unlikely to complete the diagram? The diagram/s are fairly established so surely it is known by whomever rosters the crew. Not being arsey, just curious. It inconveniences my playing out but to real passengers it is a very poor do! Ta.
You could always wait a few months until more are in service to avoid disappointment.
Given the fragility of the introduction so far, I wouldn't make concrete plans to travel on them at the moment!
Thanks but that doesn't really answer my question.

Many thanks for that, greatly appreciated. I saw 68020/28 side by side on the Friday morning but noticed 28 was missing today, thank you for solving the mystery!Another one for your list:
0M68 09:03 York Parcel Sidings to Longsight, which I would assume was 68028 and starting from the examination siding, based on the information you've posted.

Both fantastic images, what impressive locations you chose.Photographed the 68 on the Redcar training last week, at Middlesbrough and Yarm.

Don't think the wifey has been enabled on any of them yet? Not sure why that's the case.No wifi on today's 1F62 (1256 Man Vic to Liverpool).

Otherwise a nice ride.
The PIS at Victoria advertised a 3-car service (with matching pictogram).
Doors were a long time opening at Victoria, but seemed prompt enough at Lime St.
Indeed there is. Don't yet know whether it's TP10 or TP13...Looks like another mk5A set is being delivered from Portbury today.
Cheers for the clarification there Ernie. Should just leave TP10 & spare DT 12814 left for delivery.It’s TP13
Thank you so muchThe numbers are adjacent to the rear door of the DT. The first few times I saw these I made the mistake of looking on the cab side! Pic below showing 12811. Hope that helps
