NL01 was actually planned in traffic today... extra set hired in from EMT to help run services during the diversions.

There's 13 (plus NL65 & NL01) in use today - the only one that isn't is EC56 (which is on exam at EC).

Not a great start to VTEC services this morning... 1E03 delayed at Doncaster by another class 67 issue (currently 70 minutes and counting) and 1D09 delayed 15-20 minutes after a TPWS fault on the class 67...

What class 67? The locos are class 91s and the DVTs are in the 82000 number series (from what I can see)

They'll be using 67s to drag the electric sets via Lincoln due to engineering work (it's happening every weekend in November)

Ah, I didn't spot that as I didn't look at the routing south of Donnie. RTT simply shows it as electric-hauled and says "This service was cancelled between Doncaster and London Kings Cross due to a problem with the on-board safety systems (MT)."
The 1530 from Edinburgh must be being dragged too as it's also shown electric-hauled and via Lincoln after a 20 min stop at Doncaster.
