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.

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.

I’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!

W63 - 67008 Set 4
1W61 & 1V62 changed out so not 3 sets on Canton later
took 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

The spelling mautates with context and the preceeding or following word so this is quite common

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.

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.

To be fair most of those screens just look messy rather than actually displaying ECML journeys.
