I didn't realise you were on a summer holiday, would explain a lack of postings from yourself recently :)

Expect an absolute megaton of observations when I get back from my big bash of 2014 :D Not to mention a LONG trip report, and I'll hopefully be able to include the photos this time!

You haven't posted for AGES! I'm not impressed!

YES!! A pair of 3-car 175s on the 2015 Cardiff to Milford Haven this evening (175111+175104). This is wonderful; coupled 175s are rare these days!!

I posted a few observations from Tuesday! :p Seems everyone's been on holiday except me lately, that's finally changing in a few days! Not gonna like my 0500 alarm mind on Thursday, but the rest of the day promises to be amazing, as well as a trip down Memory Lane :D Find out what I'm on about on Thursday morning, when I shall be tweeting all day as usual :D

Also, I did post my observations from the Merseyrail bash nearly two weeks ago :) I just don't get too many chances to get on the rails nowadays :(

Wow, I doubt that is usual!

I am going from Pen-y-fordd to Wrexham Central to get the winner track and then up to Buckley for the winner station later today as I will be up at my grandparents, so maybe a few observations then.
Then on the friday I will be going Pen-y-ffordd-Wrexham General-Ruabon (for the winner station)-Chester-Shotton-Pen-y-ffordd.

Wow, I doubt that is usual!

To be fair, it's actually one of those services where you can never tell what stock it'll be. With the Bristol to Manchesters, you know you're going to get a Voyager, with the Euston to Manchesters you know you're going to get a 390, with the Swansea to Paddingtons, you know you're going to get a HST. But this service is unpredictable, which makes it all the more interesting! MOST of the time it's 150+150, but I have seen it as 150+150+153, 150+142, 150+143, 150+142+153, 150+143+153 and sometimes just a 150 alone, but to be fair a 158 isn't usually part of it.

Next week I'll observe what traction is on the service from Monday to Friday and we'll see if there's any differences! Could be interesting to see, hence why I'm a huge fan of TOPS data and am very much for unit allocations to be made public!

Yesterday I saw 150002 on 16.30 Cardiff Central - Portsmouth Harbour instead of the usual 3 car 158, does anyone know if this was it's first visit to Portsmouth?

165132 on the 2G27 1216 Greenford to London Paddington
On the approach to West Ealing at 1225 a 6-car passed on the fast, formed of 3 x 2-car! However I'm struggling to work out what train that was, there is nothing obvious on RTT at that time and everything there is showing No Report :?

Next week I'll observe what traction is on the service from Monday to Friday and we'll see if there's any differences! Could be interesting to see, hence why I'm a huge fan of TOPS data and am very much for unit allocations to be made public!

Thats the reason I enjoy unit spotting though, minimal gen, no-one shares TOPs data on them, just good old fashioned turn-up and see what comes.

My contribution to this thread - 91125 and the Sky HD set ran on the Kings Cross to Skipton service 04/08 - was devastated not to get to see them at Steeton, been hoping to photograph that set coming through for ages!

I was just in the middle of adding sightings from Thursday 31st July and yesterday, but I accidentally closed down the page as I was typing, so I'm not typing them all up again! Such a bugger!

All I remember was that 221119 was on the 1007 Paignton to Manchester last Thursday!
