Last night there were a 5Q20 to 5Q25 runs Canton to Pontypridd to Canton then 5Q26 to Bargoed 5Q27 back to Canton. I’m assuming this again is a 756 on test? Thank you if anyone knows.

Early hours of Saturday morning 1 June 5Q00 ran from Canton to Caerphilly and returned as 5Q01. Just curious what this might have been if any kind person knows, please. I was wondering if it might have been a 756?? Thanks

Yes it's open

Which road is that to Tongwynlais? But the road right through the industrial estate is now open. The car park is still closed.

Road passed the depot opened yesterday views are available through the fence of the units. All units 001 to 016 on depot as far as I can ascertain.

007 was the unit that picked up 004 last week. I know 008 and 009 definitely have, but I doubt 014 or 015 have.

Yes I heard that thanks Anthony

That was my post and I only saw them last Friday and I'd seen no posts on the usual channels to say they'd arrived. But doing some digging I think it was around the 14/15 December. 1705052127 Slight change to this weeks move. 20142 and 20189 are on route to Old Dalby as we speak then to Radyr...

20142 and 20189 on route to Pontypridd via Pengam Sidings tonight with 398004 from Old Dalby as 6Q21 then 6Q22 https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:R05544/2024-01-05/detailed

:lol:

66101+66002 5Q99 with 756116+756117 just past through Severn Tunnel

I see last Saturday there were a couple of middle of the night runs 5Q74-78 Canton - Radyr - Pontypridd - Canton, from my local group it's believed to be the first 756 test run up the Valleys

I think there is an expectation that 231's will also provide some cover on the TAM lines until the 398's are in service mid-next year. 231008 was booked to run over the VOG yesterday and reverse at Bridgend off the 2123 from Radyr but was subbed for a 150.

1Z99 reported as 67008

769006 left Canton 4.6.23 769445 left Canton 1.7.23 769452 left Canton 23.4.23
