RailAdventure Power Cars

[50002Superb]

I denoted them as 468 and 484 but then read your earlier post and assumed that my eyes had deceived me.

The one thing I hate about the RA powercars is the numbering. They’re so difficult to read

 

[43096]

Nice, any idea which pair this is and whether the other pair are at Chaddesden or Loughborough Brush? Thanks

I thought that would be obvious from my post about 0D26?

Have they swapped the pairings? 465 & 484 and 468 & 480 have been together for as long as

Yes.

468+484 on 0E27.

Thanks @43096 a change is as good as a rest then

Yes.

It would have been but your posts have a lengthy delay before they appear, thanks anyway

Makes sense as the 555 delivery barriers will be back at Dollands Moor and the locos to Wembley on Friday, there is an 0G19 scheduled to Kings Norton Saturday

43296 & 43308 entered store at Eastleigh in March 2021. So I suppose it’s likely they are going to Burton for component recovery.

What makes you think components haven't been removed at Eastleigh?

Perhaps I should have said further components recovery
