Chiltern loco hauled off and running

67018 and 029 are both currently shown on 1P03

67018 and 67029 did work 1P03, sadly I got messages to that effect but didn't read them in time to get out to see the train. Doubly annoying as apparently it made additional stops at Bicester North and at my local station, Haddenham & Thame Parkway Moral: read messages earlier!

I understand that 67014 is on the Chiltern LHCS, but Chiltern are running an emergency timetable today and neither 1H08 nor 1U53 appear in it, though 1H06 does, at 05:55 from Moor Street instead of 05:46, but no sign of the return working in the afternoon.

WSMR's 09:24 from Marylebone and the 13:28 from Wrexham were cancelled, according to their website.

Cheers, Geoff

67015+67018 worked tonight's 1830 London - Wrexham with an hour delay, both were powering but 015 was only idling and 018 was presumed DIT but was actually doing the work!
Am on the 0525 GOB - MYB in the morning so will post updates!
67018 worked this morning's 0510 WRX-MYB
67014 is working the Chiltern Banbury - Marylebone - Banbury
67013 is at Warrington heading back for Wrexham
67015 is on Crewe IEMD receiving attention
67012 is on the 0723 WRX - MYB

Anyone have any news on 67010?

It appears these trains are running on Dec 27th & 28th, which is interesting as I would have thought they were bank holidays given Christmas Day and Boxing Day are Weekend days...

Just to confirm, does anybody have definitive gen that these trains are working on the weekdays between Christmas and New Year?

Normally do an annual post Christmas WAG Express bash but looking like there's a strike on so may divert down to the Chiltern route.

Chiltern's second set of LHCS was in use on Wednesday 22nd December, running as a "control relief", whatever that might be. It ran as 1Z52, 18:10 from Marylebone to Birmingham Moor Street, obviously in passenger service, but did not appear in the timetable. The train was hauled by 67029 on the north end and was formed of six WSMR Mk.3 TSOs (no idea of numbers though), with 82305 (I think!) on the rear. First stop was made at Haddenham & Thame Parkway, where it was announced as a non-stop train as it wasn't in the system... It arrived at about 19:17 and departed at 19:20. The previous northbound train at Haddenham was 1U53, the first LHCS set with 67014 on the front, running a bit late at 18:42.

Pics on my site, starting at:

followed by a couple more.

Not sure what the moves of these sets will be tomorrow (sorry, today!) as yet...

Cheers, Geoff
