The Canton spare is coming in rather handy today with HD03 now working 1W63 to Manchester rather than HD06 with a WSP fault on that set.
Tomorrow should see sets 04-07 out, 06 may have 008 or 010 as the loco dependent on workload overnight at Canton

Am travelling on 1W63 tomorrow, is the indication that's expected to be an MK4 set tomorrow?

Apologies, Im a day out. Tomorrow should now be HD05 on 1V31, HD03 on 1V33, HD04 on 1V91, HD07 on 1W13.
Wednesday should be an all black set day with HD04 on 1V33, HD05 on 1V31, HD06 (with either 67008 or 67010 at the helm) on 1W13, HD07 on 1V91. Thursday then sees HD01 back with HD05 stopping for an exam.
1W63 should be HD05 tomorrow

It overheated near Church Stretton on 1V42. Now headed back to Crewe on its own power so the plan will probably stay.
That would put 1W96 as HD07+67015 which would be Loco leading out of Chester.

67029 collected 020 set 5
Back to Crewe
Back to Crewe
Plan is for 67029 to go onto HD05 for tomorrow.
67016 on HD01 has also failed on ATC so 67012 is planned to head to Crewe to act as North rescue loco, if that's not possible then the diagram starting 1V31 may have to be sacrificed to provide the recovery loco.

Good.
HD05+67029 already allocated to 1V31. 020+HD05 haven't been an especially successful pairing, hopefully 029 fairs better.
Thanks

017 set 4 in trouble on
1V33 Abergavenny
1V33 Abergavenny
1W57 now replaced with a 197 as a result. A bit worrying as that's the one I'm booked on tomorrow.

1W57 is a unit because
67015 on 1V91 is stuck behind 1V33
So it won’t get to Cardiff to work
1W57 in time

Pined at Abergavenny.

5Z33 ECS to Cardiff
Traction motor fault on 67017 today seems to be the cause. The locos really going through another dismal patch.
HD07 is swapping to w59/v50.
