Hi all,

Please could someone confirm that 47786 and 57601 are on the following?

5Z57 0725 Carnforth Steamtown to Hitchin Up Yard

If 601 isn't on it (or indeed any 57) then I'll be heading to St Neots tomorrow morning.

Cheers!

It indeed looks like those two are on it.

Thanks. That's a shame, I was hoping that it wouldn't be.

I thought you was a duff ned. Why don't you like 57s?

I'm a brush ned yes. Not a bodysnatcher ned! 57s took brush body shells and put a new engine in them so they are no more 47s than an 87 is to an 86. Oh, and 57601 lost me 400 87 miles and absolutely staggered back on a tour.

I thought you would be glad that some duffs had been given a new lease of life.
By this logic does that mean that HST power cars are no longer HST power cars as they have all been re-engined?

But 57s are a completely different class, which is why they renumbered them. They didn't renumber the HST power cars.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I meant change the first 2 digits of the number, not the last 3.

Hi

Every Monday there is an ECS movement from Wembley to Eastleigh - 0953 from Wembley - usually a DBS Class 67.

Today it was 2 x (red) DBS livery Class 67 - made quite a sight passing my office in Chiswick

Anyone tell me which 2 they were? Hopeless trying to read small white numbers from my desk...

Thanks

67015 and 67018 were the only two at Wembley this morning and both are in DB red so I'm guessing that that's your pair.
