Freightliner Electric Locomotive Diagrams

[trainmania100]

Hi,

I am going to Watford Junction on the week beginning with Monday 8th August.

I am interested in seeing some AC electric locomotives, mainly Class 86s.

Can anyone tell me the diagrams for Mon - Fri which are usually worked by AC locos?

Many thanks

The only regular duties for 86/6s south of Crewe are 4L89 Coatbridge to Felixstowe
and 4M87 Felixstowe to Trafford Park.

90s usually work 4M63/4M88/4L90, but any train can be 66 or 70 hauled
'on the day' due to loco failures/shortages, so please don't shoot the messenger!

Does freightmaster do live updates like Realtimetrains?
I have invested in Freightlocate however, they have disabled SMS alerts, they dont have loco tracker, the forums dont work, I dont feel I am getting my £25 worth.
What does freightmaster offer? I could invest in that


4M87 sounds like the one I would see. I have to get up from Brighton, so the earlier coatbridge one is a bit early.

There's also the Tilbury to Crewe, although this didn't run yesterday. However I did see two 86s and a 90 on the felixstowe to Crewe, which passed Tamworth around 1650ish.

If you mean the daytime 4M54, that hasn't run for over a year now.

...although this didn't run yesterday.

Hardly surprising!

That's the 4M88 I mentioned as booked for an electric in my earlier reply.
