Thanks, hopefully I'll get the dang thing in the book before then :)

I'll be making plenty of observations tomorrow and Saturday, with the aim to have them uploaded Saturday evening, as I'm due home by 1915 on Saturday night so should have some time to get online. If not, they'll be up sometime on Sunday :)

Looking forward to reading your notes from Leamington Spa :)

I always believed that the 1232 from Holyhead went through to Maesteg?

I always thought that this worked the 1314 Cardiff to Swansea, then the 1510 Swansea to Chester. Isn't it the 0628 Holyhead to Cardiff that the forms the 1321 back to Holyhead? I could be wrong!

Thanks, hopefully I'll get the dang thing in the book before then :)

I'll be making plenty of observations tomorrow and Saturday, with the aim to have them uploaded Saturday evening, as I'm due home by 1915 on Saturday night so should have some time to get online. If not, they'll be up sometime on Sunday :)

Looking forward to reading your notes from Leamington Spa :)

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 :)

There are 2 158 Diagrams which work to Ebbw Vale also 2 153 strengthening duties and Pacers booked strengthening on a Saturday.

Ahhh, well in all fairness I was basing it on old information and trying to get the post done in a hurry in an unusual bit of data signal on the Marches.

Fair enough with regards to Ebbw Vale services :)

Sheesh Techniquest,
That is one hell of a post. How long did it take you?
The next post I should do is when I go into Nottingham on friday from East Midlands Parkway.
Then on saturday I am going to do a Thames Line Rover between Reading and Paddington and just 'hack' between them for the day.

Including time to reference stuff against RTT and the Merseyrail timetables, I'd say around 3 hours all in. Didn't exactly measure the time so could have been less but 3 hours is a good estimate.

If I'd noted some of the other stuff trains did on Saturday afternoon the post would have been even longer!

Been a long absence of postings from me lately, had an enforced break from the railway last week due to financial difficulties. Can't wait to get back on the bash tomorrow, feels like a long time since I got home from Merseyside on the 29th of March!

Got a little time on Leeds station earlier, caught a quartet of EMT HSTs:

43055+43047
43083+43048
43046+43064
43049+43054

A WCRC ECS move, they often throw up surprises, in this case a trio of 47s:
47786 + 47826 + 47804

And blindsiding me completely, 66504 on a VSTP freight run with three hoppers. Fortunately had quick reactions and got a shot off.

The day's photos, with some more local DMU action: https://www.flickr.com/photos/r-t-c/archives/date-posted/2014/04/06

Jammy guy's on holiday in nicer climates than here, hence no posting from DanTrainMan185 lately :)
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
From my usual Monday morning fester:

175106 0555 Crewe-Carmarthen
158823 0650 Cardiff Central-Manchester Piccadilly (normally 0503 from Carmarthen, due to a fatality at Pyle this morning it was restarted at Cardiff with headcode 1Z48)
175105 0425 Holyhead-Cardiff Central
175110 0721 Cardiff Central-Holyhead
153354+170517 0659 Birmingham New Street-Hereford, 0849 Hereford-Birmingham New Street

Will TRY to post more of today's observations during the day to help with anyone planning moves, but no guarantees!

I will post what I see when I get to my location (Penyffordd).
I will be traveling from Nuneaton-Birmingham New Street-Shrewsbury-Wrexham-Penyffordd.

Just to say DanTrainMan185 the HSTs on 1B28 10:52 London Paddington-Carmarthan on the 6th of April were 43159 and 43040.
I just noticed you didn't know what the other power car was.

At my desk
About our posts added tonight.

Also if you see a xxx it means I need that loco/unit number.

Thanks in advance.

Oh actually, what am I on?! I saw 43040 when I left the station and drove past!

Although if you know what trailed 43035 on the 1215 Paddington to Cardiff that'd be spiffing!
