Red Pen 2016 - your new haulages

[Techniquest]

Almost there then FQ, which is your last GWR power car to get?

 

[FQ]

43159.

 

[Techniquest]

Bet you're glad it's not 43160

 

[FQ]

Certainly! Just done my tram mileage now and apparently it is 10327.25 (if you count both powercars as one) or 20654.50 on separate powercars!

Very nice, quite a productive weekend there for you!

FQ: Not a bad amount at all, I think I'm somewhere around 43,000 track miles on HSTs, obviously around 86,000 for class miles. I dread to think what that would have been if I hadn't stopped full-time HST bashing back in the day...

 

[FQ]

That is very decent mileage there! I certainly need many more miles to get there!

 

[Kite159]

I need to make a start with my GW HSTs.

To Reading!

 

[Techniquest]

Don't forget I was doing HSTs when you were still a toddler FQ!

 

[FQ]

Good point...

I know a couple of people who've had 43k off one power car. One has cleared a power car for 100k.

Wow! In 6 years I have managed 42k HST mileage. The power car I have had the miles off is 43143 which I have had 1543 miles off.

Dedication that, fair play! 100,000 off anything would be incredible for all of us!

 

[FQ]

My highest is 43208 and it's not even cleared for the thou'! It's on 611. Then comes 43314 (581) and then probably 43053 (406).

Filling some shocking gaps in the books (37075, 20s, 50s etc). First time in many years at the SVR so that's sort of an excuse for all the home fleet winners!

An extremely fortuitous May 17 leaves me with only 1 Northern DMU to get then the 15 or so 319s from their fleet.

Hopeful the Fort Bill beds drops something needing the red pen next week (Skip 9 or 73968/969 please) whilst I'm up there. Otherwise wait until the end of June when I'm up there again!

I've got 317 (603), 295 (598), 301 (559), 009/098 (477) to wield but not much else. On the other hand I've got 5 37s (405 409 419 423 610) so far over the magical thou', as Tech would say, plus a fair few more quite close as well as 55022.

I managed 90028 for 964mi in a week on mr ALR a couple of years ago and I doubt that'll ever go further!

 

[D841 Roebuck]

Still trying to reconstruct my records after a pc failure five years ago, so can't give exact figures.

40145 is certainly over 1000.

155344 must be close, and mostly in 10 mile RCD to MCV segments.

I recall 87029 turning up a lot as well, back in the day.

My highest mileage loco is 55022, which I cleared for 10,000 back in 2012, although I don't consider myself to be a 'main man' when it comes to Deltic mileages. Both D9009 and 55019 are somewhere between 6,000 and 7,000. D9002 is much firther behind, I cleared it for 1,000 at the Severn Valley Gala last weekend, where (to bring this post back on topic!), I scored 66763 and 68025.

Many congratulations young sir! I'd imagine there was restraint needed to stop a huge bellow of joy when it rolled in! Certainly happened to me after I alighted a Cardiff-Padd HST at Newport in May 2008. Yes it has been 8 years since I cleared my GWR HST power cars, and yes I missed the anniversary of the event on 12th May!

Looking forward to the trip report about it, I've got a feeling it'll be an excellent read!

I remember when I cleared my power cars (not just GW ones). I was having a few days away with my parents in the West Country, and I was sat on Dawlish Warren station on the Sunday with my dad, while my mum went to the pie shop to get something for dinner. In rolled 43011 heading to London on one of the few long-distance trains that stopped there. Suffice to say, I had a quick ride up to Exeter (I was back in about 40 minutes), and my dinner wasn't delayed much!
