Thank you very much for the info.

I had my first trip on one yesterday and unit 006 performed admirably :D. When i passed EP depot around 5 yesterday afternoon I noted newly delivered 022 plus 009 & 016. There were at least 3 others (one with nose cone off) i couldn't ID, can anyone assist with identification please

Hi can you tell me how I access this, do i use the quick search or the main menu? Regards Dave

Hi Passed Camden sidings yesterday and saw 2 x 730/2's. Managed to id the furthest unit as 205, I'm assuming from reports above that the other unit is 220. Can anyone confirm this please.

Hi Came past Wimbledon depot yesterday and 'spied' 3 x 701's stabled in the running shed nearest the station. Does anyone have intel as to which they might be.
