HD06 failed on Canton with a wheel slip protection fault, 1W13 to be a unit this morning.
1V31 Crewe start is HD07/67015
1V33 Manchester start is HD03/67010
1V91 Holyhead start is HD01/67029.
1V91 is 67013
It worked 1W96 last night not 029
Corrected my post cheers, my mistake must’ve missed that!

HD01 now swapped off V46 at Crewe with power issues on a coach.1W63 - 67012 Set 6
1W96 - 67015 Set 7
HD01 now swapped off V46 at Crewe with power issues on a coach.
Was supposed to be 3 Crewe starts tomorrow, with 1W13 swapped in at Crewe and only the Canton diagram on Sunday. HD01 was supposed to stand down for a minor exam after service tomorrow, returning on Tuesday so depends how quickly itd repaired whether that still stands.
Just my luck....
Hopefully 1W63 is a mark 4 as 1W61 is already been swapped out
As a result of all the changes there are now 2 sets available tomorrow, HD04 on the Crewe diagram and HD06 on the Cardiff.Another eventful day !
67010 Set 3, 1W55 only made Hereford then pine, speedo fault
ECS back to Canton.
67008 Set 4 have worked 1W13
Forward from Crewe.
67013 Set 1 working 1V46
from Crewe.
67012 Set 6
1V37, 1W59, 1V50.
I’m hoping to pick up 1V42 at Crewe on Monday - to Newport (going to Bristol).As a result of all the changes there are now 2 sets available tomorrow, HD04 on the Crewe diagram and HD06 on the Cardiff.
Monday sees 3 sets start diagrams, HD06 starting at Canton on 1W13, HD07 starting Holyhead on 1V91 and HD04 starting at Crewe on 1V33. HD03 is planned to pick up 1W55 and the remainder of that diagram from repairs at Canton.
HD01 is on minor exam at Crewe Sunday and Monday, once that one is back it's the turn of HD07 for an exam.
V42 on Monday should be 67010+HD03I’m hoping to pick up 1V42 at Crewe on Monday - to Newport (going to Bristol).
Can anyone tell me what will be on this yet?
Thanks ☺️ going TFW avoiding Cross Country!
Perfect thank you ❤️ hoping for a nice smooth loco runV42 on Monday should be 67010+HD03
took this one in the end, was heaving on the platform but once on first class was near emptyW63 - 67008 Set 4
1W61 & 1V62 changed out so not 3 sets on Canton later
The spelling mautates with context and the preceeding or following word so this is quite commontook this one in the end, was heaving on the platform but once on first class was near empty
sadly no chef so no dining (wish they had better listings of what services had dining or not as not that clear online)
one thing i did have a chuckle at was that they had 2 totally diffrent translations for manchester being used at the same time on the displays

I believe 67 leading.Morning
Will 1W96 tonight be loco or DVT leading from Chester to Holyhead please ?
Thank you

At least 10 every time I travel in that carriage (though it is the 18:30 off Manchester and that is a busy train so may not be representative). I always explain that it is stuck from a past life.I like how quite a lot of the seat reservation screens still show things like London King's Cross or Edinburgh Waverley on them.
I wonder how many people get on and go "Eh?!" when seeing them.
Perfect thank you ❤️ hoping for a nice smooth loco run
Sadly looks like I’m on a 197 today according to real time trains.V42 on Monday should be 67010+HD03
