All Mk4s now suspended for the remainder of today too including stock moves.

*IF* things open and are back to normal tomorrow should have:
HD01 1W11 1V37 1W23
HD03 1V91 1W19 1V50
HD04 ECS to Crewe 67017+67013 d.i.t
HD06 1W57 1V46 1W65

Sadly out the window now as Hereford - Shrewsbury remains shut till at least mid day tomorrow.
Edit - now back to the norm!
Control seemingly cannot make their mind up

No Holyhead finish planned, HD01 will be on its last day and HD06 overdue for exams so both need to finish in Crewe.

Not sure the issue but HD02 now shows as without a loco and was removed off its Planned work tomorrow.

HD01+67014 are now planned for W55 V42 W23 after its earlier run was cancelled.

AFAIK the plans are still the same with HD03 moving to W19 and HD06 going onto W57 but they've not been updated yet. Things have changed a lot though in the last 24 hours so Potentially may have changed but one way or another HD06 needs to be in Crewe.

Thank you

Doesn't look likely at the moment. Possible will go tomorrow now instead once things are more back to normal.

015 on HD06 has faults so won't enter service at all.

With this availability looks terrible for tomorrow with an abysmal 1 full diagram and 1 service on another plus 3 faulty/failed sets out on stock moves or test runs.

HD01- Last day stands down tonight for exam.
HD02- 67014 coming off 01 overnight to swap to 02 and out on 1V31 etc diagram tomorrow.
HD03- Loco acting as south standby so will only work 1W96 tomorrow
HD04- 67013 failure loco and set planned to be hauled back to Crewe by 67017
HD05- Still on exam at Crewe ETD
HD06-.67015 faults, loco and set planned to be hauled back to Crewe by 67006
HD07- Planned load for 67025 test run.

1W11, 1W57, 1W19, 1W65, 1V33, 1V37 1V91, 1V46 all planned substitutions to units for tomorrow.

Cheers, was thinking possibly 2 only
But that’s worse !

Even that had power issues so down to 0.

 

[Jamesrob637]

So only 1 set out today.

 

[JakeMurphy]

Just saw HD07 on its test run however 025 isn’t being convincing when trying to depart.

 

[AlterEgo]

Any gen on whether tomorrow's 1649 departure from CDF will be Mk4s? I see it's a crappy 197 again today and will can the trip if it is.

 

[37052 xb mr]

67017 has gone to Holyhead
Path in for it bringing
67013 & set 4 back to Crewe

67010 just had a little jolly
From the EMD to Crewe station & back

As it stands there's no Mk4s expected out at all tomorrow.

Looks like that will be the only set out anywhere today.

67016 now doing the Cardiff move either today or tomorrow vice 67006, this means HD03 can't enter service so the last set now won't run on W96.
Tomorrow looks like no sets too although 67029+HD05 are expected to move from Crewe ETD to Crewe ATC via Chester to act as it's shakedown run too.

 

[AlterEgo]

As it stands there's no Mk4s expected out at all tomorrow.

Appreciate the reply, thanks.

 

[ThatOneWelsh]

As it stands there's no Mk4s expected out at all tomorrow.

Is there any indication of improvement to the situation by Friday or is it looking more like next week to start getting back to normal?

Need to know if I should give up my hopes of ever getting a first class meal from TfW

 

[Jacob Porrett]

Today at Crewe depot (11/12/24):

67025 was connected to HD07

67025 now connected to HD01

67014 connected to HD02

HD07 failed it's run today.

No 67 Mk4s out tomorrow because loco available it next to none. Too many are broken.

HD07 now no loco on it.
