TRUST doesn't show any Light Engine moves passing Hexthorpe Junction between 0135 and 0957 yesterday.

The only thing I've been able to spot that comes remotely close is a loco running round its train at Doncaster iPort, though that was shortly after 0800.

Sadly the allocation for that has dropped off what I can see.

6C03 66114
6V32 66113
Thanks a lot, it wasn’t that particular movemen, they were a few of us that saw it, so who knows.

Having taken a look at a replay, I think I've identified the move. It appeared at signal D239 (exit from Down Decoy/Royal Mail Terminal) at 0833 with a description of 1472 and ran into Hexthorpe Yard.

As an ad hoc move, it didn't get reported in TRUST, alas.

Could it be 66301 running round the 4L28 iport to Felixstowe? That was at St James 0800 then thru Bessacar at 0847? Do they run round in Hexthorpe?

Does anyone know what worked 6V47 05:06 Lawley Street - East Usk Yard today, 14/06, please? Believe it was either 66533 or 66567. Many thanks.

66533 worked it up to Lawley St, they often switch locos there so doesn’t necessarily mean that is the one that works it back. 567 been doing the Oxford run I think

Correct

Good morning, does anyone know what’s on 3S70 Broxbourne to Anglia this morning?
3S70 is normally the rail head treatment train so won’t run until the autumn leaf fall season

No its not 66301 as I spotted it that day, so that had the fleet Number on its side, this Loco had absolutely nothing on its side.

Here is a very difficult one, coming up from the South, Running Light, and going down the Avoider at Doncaster. A Brand New 66 GBRF Loco, so new it didn’t have the Fleet Number on its side, this was approximately 08.45 / 09.00. Anyone have The Foggiest idea?
I have been wondering if it was 66310, 66311 or 66312 as they might be very near to being ready for service but lacking final livery bits (numbers). As of 08/06/2024 66312 was at Doncaster Roberts Road so local enough. I thought 66310 or 66311 was also at RR by the 13th ?. Perhaps the question is - what were any of those three doing on that day - Thursday 13/06/2024 ?.

I didn’t spot any of the Numbers you have suggested. I went down past Roberts Road, to Mexboroug, they was just 69010 outside the works. Very quiet for Robert’s Road. It really could be one of the Numbers you have mentioned.
