Locomotive Services Fleet (LSL) updates

[Iskra]

Anyone know which steam locomotive is likely to be on the Settle-Carlisle run tomorrow please?

 

[D365]

Correct me if I'm wrong but 40012 is owned by Andania Engineering, don't think part of LSL?
I heard some financial irregularities over the sale from the former owner but not sure what's going on to tbh.

I’m not aware that ownership of 40012 has been resolved.

 

[D9016_Highland]

Currently at Swietelsky HN Rail traction depot at Worksop

Any indication they plan to repaint it at all or is it still in the blue?

 

[Forty29]

Pretty sure still blue but is in closed doors so?
Probably the last job on the list if the plan is a return to main line running?

 

[Mollman]

Interesting move today, Britannia and two 20s had a trip to Carnforth but the return working was marked as cancelled but still ran.

Funny. I wonder why it was originally showing as cancelled?

37521 + 47805, isn't it?

 

[Tobytrain10]

37521 + 47805, isn't it?

Is it that both ways or is it the 47 to barrow and 37 to crewe?

 

[Trainman40083]

Not sure

[Tobytrain10]

60007 has withdrawn from the Welsh Marches Express due to the heat, which includes the Crewe - St Philip’s Marsh run being cancelled also. The loco will stay in Crewe until further notice

Presumably the charter will still run, just with diesel haulage throughout. Let’s hope for some good traction

Literally anything other than a 47 or 57 is great, a 40 or 50 would be my personal preference but who knows

 

[802020]

I heard from someone it’s supposed to be 47810/57302. Let’s hope they change their mind

No wonder people think diesel engines are boring compared to steam, when they only ever seem to bring out the most boring diesels!

Lol. Was cool to see that they brought out 37667 for the Statesman last Thurs. Wonder what they will put on the one this Saturday which I can actually see!!

Was the Victoria to Haverfordwest train an LSL working? Just saw tops of a rake of mk3s from my house but couldn't see livery. Loco was quite quiet but didn't see what it was either. Just curious!

No that sounds like the Britannic Explorer which is Belmond with GBRf providing the traction.

Ok, thanks. Forgotten that was a possibility.

5Z47 75 late and now diverting Didcot way.

 

[Jacob Porrett]

57302 and 47810 are coming off the Welsh Marches Railtour at Shrewsbury today because the 57 is broken and the 47 has ran out of fuel.

20118/132 and 47712 are replacing said locomotives instead.

Thank the train gods, some real traction getting on now
