11 Car Pendo at Dollands Moor

[The Planner]

Rumour has it. 390 054 making its way to Edge Hill early Friday according to the grapevine, no proof of whether its true before anyone asks !!

Certainly sounds as a rumour, certainly nothing yet coming up in TRUST for Friday.

 

[The Planner]

Dragged up by Colas apparently. Might be put in by control on the day.

 

[ChampsRacing]

Ive also heard this on a few other gen forums.

 

[Geezertronic]

A quick search of the Internet suggests The Planner is correct, these photos were linked on another forum of the set in Spain - nice livery

[gordonthemoron]

judging by the lingo, I'd suggest it is in Italy

 

[captainbigun]

The unit was at Modane, France last night. It is due off Dollands Moor at 05:37 on Friday, due Edge Hill at 13:03. Colas is the operator.

Of course you are correct, especially since the damn things are built in Italy

 

[YorkshireBear]

please tell me the extra two carriges are standard class cos i dont think 5/11 first 6/11 standard is realistic in any way shape or form
4/11 7/11 sounds about right split

how long till they start mainline runs then if its due at edge hill?

 

[MCR247]

They are standard

If you believe what is being said, they'll sit gathering dust for a long long while.

 

[YorkshireBear]

They are standard

thank god for that

 

[Darandio]

Ready for East Coast decals?

Don't suppose anybody noticed that there is no stripes on the doors like on the other 52 390's? Will this be it's livery that it operates in, or will it gain stripes at Edge Hill? Because its not that noticeable so it wouldn't be DDA (or whatever it is) compliant would it?

 

[YorkshireBear]

looks smart in new EC i think

All the VT doors are dark grey with white stripes laid on top. You can peel them off the door with a sharp nail. So at a guess, they'll be put on at Edge Hill.

[Geezertronic]

Can anybody have a look to see how many pantographs it has?

 

[Electrostar]

Any chance they can stop the Pendolino on route to pick up passengers stranded by the Southeastern cancellations?

 

[IanPooleTrains]

probably got as much chance of it doing a run to Liverpool Lime Street

Seen the pics though, she looks gorgeous!

I'll let you tomorrow just after 1pm any other ridiculous ideas that came up over the last few years that we want disqualified?!

Oh i'll make sure I can verify the window size as well

Maybe chek the size of the decals are okay? Check the length of each car? Width of the train as well?

Sorr for the double post but has this moved yet or is it still sitting in Dollands Moor?

You couldn't break into it, use the bog then see if it smells could you?

 

[Pumbaa]

Didn't make it across the channel - Dollands Moor was too full to receive it due to no trains being able to get out through the snow.

 

[Simon Poole]

How bad is Dollands Moor at this time?

have they moved some Freight Trains today and i heard that 390054 will be dragged on Monday? is that true or just an rumor?

 

[mumrar]

It's apparently due out of the tunnel anytime now, and will be heading out of Dollands Moor mid morning tomorrow.

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Is it?

I've just been told it's running north from Dolland's on Monday ( 6th ) early morning.

 

[mumrar]

This is the trouble with rumours and overheard mutterings I guess. Too much information can be a bad thing.

 

[Crossover]

Does anyone know the timings of when it is due to be moved - as with the original booked move?
I noticed it heads through Stafford en-route so if its at a reasonable hour and I'm bored I may wander toward the station
