Looks back to normal service. Many thanks.

Well Traksy stopped working for me early afternoon Thursday 24th by shrinking its track diagrams to smaller than a line of type. Normally fabulous. Firefox on Android Is it just me?:(

Is this another 92 release from Brush? Toton to Crewe HS via Brush on Sunday. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/R50449/2017/10/01/advanced

Is it one of those two that goes to Brush tomorrow? http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/R50416/2017/09/24/advanced

That is very helpful. I have been searching for that info for ages! Thanks.

I understand that EPS sold 020, 021,032,040 & 044 to Eurotunnel in 2007 who had them all restored in Coquelles by Brush. No such luck for 045 & 046 but maybe that gives us a clue to condition.

There was a T3 possession between Hildenborough and Sevenoaks which did not end until 4.45 so there was a 2 hour wait. Delayed 6X71 from DM to Hornsey depot too so two hits for gbrf.

Is that the first visit by a refurbished 92 to Dollands Moor? Will they be taking china clay through the tunnel tonight? Or just my wishful thinking!

I believe there is a nine day closure at Mauchline on the Dumfries route so Mossend makes sense.

Does anyone know if the two failures mentioned involved the same carriages?

Porterbrook lease 17x323 units and 20x319 units to Northern. 37 in total. They lease 37x350/2 units to LM. The same LM that is now getting some 319s. Perhaps Northern will get all the 350/2 units and LM those 319/3s and 323s in the new franchises? Maybe?

Another delivery is on the way from Wolverton Centre to Allerton. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/O96425/2015/05/14/advanced

Anyone know if this Transpennine ECS move is a 170 moving south on May 18th from Crofton Depot to Brush at Lbo? http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/N01394/2015/05/18/advanced

AM9 is right to correct my error on 325 retractioning. Sorry. I agree with his other comments too.

Most of that can be sorted by Angel if they refurb. I take your point about Shap but havent the similar (retractioned) 325s worked from Warrington to Glasgow doing the mail? New build is clearly better but someone has to sign the cheque.
