Just a bit busy aye! It's going to be even busier tomorrow as I try to work out stuff as it passes on a very busy region, I think I'll not be able to keep up! :lol:

I'll have plenty from the Southern Region to post by Tuesday evening, an area which is not getting much action on this thread. The West Midlands, Glasgow and South Wales/North Somerset are getting plenty of regular reports at least, just bugger all coming from Anglia, the North West, the North East, North/Mid Wales or the rest of Scotland :|

I was using a North West Rover last week, and I'll be using it tomorrow too. :D
I am right this minute sorting out my notes and I expect to have my sightings from this area posted soon. :)

Excellent stuff, I'll look forward to seeing that, if memory serves it'll be the first observations from that area on this thread :)

I've got an absolute ton of observations to go through, so please bear with me while I get them sorted out. I hope to have got them organised by tomorrow night, but we'll see. If not I'll have them done by Wednesday :)

I almost got excited there, thinking I had seen this unit at Shotton. Then I checked my photos. It was 175102 I saw there. :lol:
(It was working 1H88 1244 Llandudno to Manchester Piccadilly.)

Having not had much chance to get on here to have a read lately, I've got some catching up to do with replying. So let's go!

03_179, aye it took a long time to type up, probably about 2.5 hours all in just transferring them from the phone to the laptop then using RTT to fill in service origin/destination/times detail. Exhausting.com :lol:

postye, welcome to the thread and I hope you'll continue to stay with us posting your observations :)

fishquinn, that looks like a lot of festering at Leamington Spa there! However they are all welcome observations :)

DanTrainMan185, a 143 up the Ebbw Vale line does seem quite rare to me, certainly anything non-150 is unusual! Looking forward to the rest of the observations and, of course, all future ones too :)

AndrewR232, fantastic stuff there, glad to have seen where various 390s and Northern Rail DMUs I need have been. Jealous you've had 390104, I came close to having it on a WMDR last time I did one but it failed before it reached Coventry. I have a hunch it'll take me a while to find it, sure took me a long time to get it for sight! I like the idea of noting the location of the sighting, I may have to take that on board myself :)

I will post if I hear or see what 390104 is working and I will (hopefully) be able to tell you what it would work next.
