150104 and 150106 are still in service with GW but without First Great Western Decals ready for it's move North.

Rumours 43144 and 43146 have lost their building a Greater West vinyls

Could someone possibly tell me which power cars was on todays1W41 Paddington to Great Malvern Service? Cheers

43148 is now back in Blue, 2015 Bristol Green Vinyls removed, no news on 43126 as yet

They should change the locomotive if it's too big to be turned..it was a tight fit at St Blazey on the Royal Duchy.

Anyone know when 43144, 43146 and 43163 will lose their vinyl liveries?

With 012 being took out of service..does it mean 126, 148 and 192 will be too?

Hi all, I have heard rumours that FGW will be having a SWT 159 working on the Summer timetable starting in may, im not sure which working it will do though... I overheard staff talking about this at Salisbury last week! What will happen guys?!?!?! Cheers :)

158 is better than a 150 for the long journey. I would imagine that is the end of the hire in's as they were only meant to be here for summer

Does anyone know when the hire in expires?

Hi all, This morning I saw a 159 working the 2E17 Warminster to Great Malvern Service, It was the usual 3 coach service, but it was formed of 159/0 on the front of departure from Bristol T.M and 159/1 on the rear, does anybody know why this is? Cheers
