Moderator note: Split from

Ex LNER (and Grand Central) Mark 4 sets for TfW

Now that the Azuma's are nearly in service and Mark 4's are going to be released in the coming weeks, do we know any more details about the three MK4 rakes that Transport for Wales are due to receive from LNER, such as which sets they'll be receiving and when they'll enter service by?

What are the chances of a 67/Mark 4 set on the Cardiff-Holyhead tomorrow evening please? I'm hoping for dinner on board.

If I'm not mistaken nor any exams, should be HD02.

Believe HD03 is taking a stroll into brickyard sidings on 5Z23 before heading back to Manchester..

Currently at Cardiff Central, hoping to catch - and dine on - the 16 49 to Manchester. However, I see from RTT that the incoming service (1V42) has lost 20 minutes since Hereford. Anyone know what the problem is....and whether it's likely to be a unit substitution on the return working? TIA.

Failed 197 on the 11:30 from Manchester, coupled to the ex Holyhead (1V95) and terminated at Newport. One of many recent failed or faulty 197s unfortunately.

Many thanks. Fingers crossed for the 16 49 then. ECS has just left platform 3 for Canton....so let's hope they can turn it round in time!

Oh dear! I departed Cardiff right time at 16 49 on board 1W23....but baled at Cwmbran when I discovered that there's no chef on board. Now I discover that 1W96 hasn't left Cardiff yet....and I only have a half hour connection at Chester to get me home tonight (and that's with an all-stations RRB from Man Vic to Rochdale). Help!

EDIT: Looks like it's on its way now +8. Phew!

Earlier this year I was checking RTT every morning to find the TfW /67 workings, a friend required three 67's for haulage , 67020 his final scatch, he succeeded after several weeks of patience.
When RTT does not list an allocation, suspect a DMU substitution

Believe I saw set HD05 with 008 on Canton earlier, 022 on another Ex-GC set, 008 was pulling out of the shed with HD05 and when I passed again later had been moved to the sidings
