90002 + 10411 + 10416 + 11076 + 12171 + 12111 + 11077 + 82139 + 10415 and 82143 all due to leave Norwich for Crewe tomorrow morning, 90002 heading to LSL (nameplates still attached), 82143 + 10415 have been donated to Manchester Fire & Rescue.
5Z90 due to leave Norwich at 08:42.
could well be 90001 + 90002 going to Locomotive Services LTD, they could also be taking DVT 82118 + MK3 12114 which have been donated to Crewe Heritage Centre by Porterbrook.
90034 is currently still at Ilford Depot, should imagine that its due to head back to Crewe soon now that Greater Anglia's MK3 sets have been stood down/withdrawn.
37401 took 12170 + 12103 + 12016 + 12120 + 12099 _ 12024 and 12141 to Booths at Rotherham on Wednesday.
37716 also took 82136 + 12032 + 12097 + 12079 and 12159 for storage on the MNR as well on Wednesday.
apologies if there is already a thread that has mentioned/covers this?
according to a video by "Nodrog" on YouTube (link attached below), Grand Central are set to start using Class 90s, likely from DB rather than ex LNER Class 91s on push/pull services from London Euston to Blackpool North...
from what I understand the next one arriving is 745001, the unit arrived in Calais last Monday/Tuesday and on Thursday evening was attached to 66002 but the move was cancelled, so I presume it will come this Thursday instead?
sorry if this has been asked before?.
would anyone know what the plans are (if there’s any) in terms of the LNER ‘Azuma’s being introduced on the ‘Highland Cheiftain’ services from London Kings Cross to Inverness?.
apologies if this is the wrong thread for this.
GA and some of their MK3 Class 90 hauled sets?. new trains have started arriving but looks like most of the MK3s will still be needed heading into the new year.
although the delivery of 745005 didn’t happen, if they kept 104 at NCP, there wouldn’t be room for 005 with all the current rolling stock still about, NCP is limited for space right at the moment.
