Ok then. 67+MK3s+DVT for the CDF-HHD or MAN-LLD route which would then cascade 175s to work the other services that the 158s work. Then all of the 158s can be focused on the work out of Brum and some of the busier services can be formed of 6 coaches ;)

It might happen though!

Who's going to pay ? As I said there are enough 158s on paper and that is what is plans are based on.

I'm glad you've all been keeping the thread going while I've been busy bashing! I haven't got a ton of observations to post I'm afraid just yet, however what I intend to do is post a list of what I travelled on on my 10th Basherversary bash (see my trip report thread for the details, I believe the report is on page 50 onwards), which I was going to do for every bash but I haven't done so yet.

It's a VERY long list though, so please bear with me. I know it'll all be historic gen now, as the first day was nearly a week ago, but I intend to get it all worked on by the end of this week. Something to do on my commutes to/from work!

43206 would have been with 43312 on 1E15. I was wandering what the 'delayed' 13:03 from Newcastle to Inverness would be. Didn't know it was one of my local 'cats'!

17:23 Exmouth - Barnstaple 143619 + 143611
18:13 Barnstaple - Exmouth 143621 + 143612
19:25 Exeter St. David's - Axminster 159108 + 159011 (Cancelled between Axminster and London Waterloo due to a train fault; 40 minutes late arriving at Axminster due to lightning having damaged signalling equipment at Honiton. Quite ironic really, the guard was complaining about the set to another member of staff at EXD, and the driver of the pacer that just pulled in (from Barnstaple) behind said that he's welcome to take the pacer instead :lol: - After the 159 developed a fault at Axminster, in hindsight maybe he should have taken him up on the offer. ;) )

We got chucked off at Axminster to wait for the next service - Which was also running about 40 minutes late and terminated early itself at Salisbury!

Other than the major signalling fault at Honiton, there were lots of small-medium delays on the Devon metro services - Delays to HST services were caused by signalling problems in the Reading earlier earlier in the day and the crowding from the Dawlish air show, the line between Exeter and Newton Abbot/Paignton was very stretched yesterday!

I work in the big blue box that is Ikea in Cardiff and was lucky enough to be in a training session today meaning I was in a room with a window overlooking the Cardiff to Barry line.

Aside from the usual myriad of units, I also saw:

66125 0615 Aberthaw Power Station Ews to Avonmouth Ntl Pwr Silo 1
66057 1037 Margam T.C. to Tower Colly Ews
66037 1039 Cwmbargoed Opencast Colly. to Margam T.C.

47727 was booked to pass on a Barry to Barry (via Swansea) working but it was cancelled at Cardiff Central on the way back from Swansea.

Also saw the lunchtime Tower to Aberthaw but didn't catch the loco.
