Train Database 2020

[BenW390Fan]

Also, just a tip based on my experience, consider how much time you have available when you sit down to start updating and if you have a fair chunk of time look to get classes with hundreds of locos out of the way - I broke the 66 class down into their sub classes which helped but it still took me ages to complete them. And as for the 08 shunters - give yourself a good few hours and be prepared to see '08' appear every time you close your eyes afterwards

On the other hand, if you've only got a short amount of time then just focus on getting the smaller fleets done - 88s for example will only take you 15 minutes but its another class available to everyone

Thanks, I don't have a lot of time on my hands unfortunately so that's why I'm dreading updating the 43's! But yeah, I'll start small

Love this list! My one suggestion would be to put a rough Entry of Service/Year built and End of service on there too.

Thanks for the kind feedback! It was something I was planning on doing but I figured it'd add on more time to each train and time is something that I unfortunately have very little of

Can I suggest that this thread is pinned to the top? Ben has gone to too much work for it to be lost within the threads.

Just an update for the DRS 37/6 fleet (all stored I believe):

37603 XHHP LONGTOWN LONGTOWN
37604 XHHP LONGTOWN LONGTOWN
37606 XHHP GRESTYBGE GRESTYBMD

(XHHP being the code for DRS De-registered Locos)

Hope this helps

Update 13.1

This looks like an excellent resource.
Any particular reason why class 45s are included, but 44s and 46s excluded?

Thanks, I didn't put the 44's or 46's in as I wasn't aware of any that are in service anywhere, correct me if I'm wrong though

 

[CW2]

44004 seems to be a runner:
44004
44008 is on Peak Rail - I'm not sure of its status.
There are three 46s preserved, 46010, 46035, and 46045.

I guess it depends on your criteria for inclusion, because I don't think any of the above are main line certified. But then the same applies to the class 45s which you have included in the database.

43054 and 43083 (both EMR) were ferried to storage at long marston today.

Update 16

- @Joel_F has added icons / images to all of the Class 165 / 166's, many thanks go to him as always!

I also have to thank Joel for taking over the updates whilst I've taken a small break, mainly because it was my 15th birthday yesterday but hopefully we'll be back to normal shortly. I'm currently mid-way through updating the 43's so I'll try and get them sorted soon. As always, thank you to Joel for all the help!

 

[CW2]

Happy birthday for yesterday. Keep up the good work.
Thanks.

 

[BenW390Fan]

Update 16.1

- @Joel_F is on a roll and has added all of the Class 168 icons / images, including all 2, 3 and 4 car variants as well as distinguishing the flat end units from the curved style!

Happy birthday for yesterday. Keep up the good work.
Thanks.

Thank you!

Lovely to see the work going into this. I love the addition of the images - it makes it easy to see at a glance which unit is in which livery. The amount of work which has gone into this and which I expect swill continue to go into this is brilliant! Just shows what a group of like-minded people can accomplish.

Also - happy birthday @BenW390Fan!
