With leaf season fast approaching, I'm guessing that we will start to see Rail Head Treatment Trains out and about. What locos are we likely to see in different parts of the country? I understand there has been some changeovers in contracts with Colas taking over DRS in West Yorkshire I believe?

Any diagrams/expected routes would be greatly welcomed too

Any idea on the Colas Swindon diagram that used to be Gloucester based, covering Worcestershire, Oxfordshire, Wiltshire, Herefordshire and Shropshire? Was 67023 and 67027 for the whole of last season but as they've gone to GBRf it'll be different traction - a return of Colas 56s on the RHTT?

I would imagine 66s. Are 70s able to work it? I've never seen them do that before but maybe that has been down to availability
