I thought this was a voyager after the Mk3 set went to 1K39! When did it change to a pendolino?

As Flamboyant they only ran the one tour (Brighton Rocks), the other tour was run the year before as Donny PSB (or something similar). I don't think the Brighton tour was helped when 73205 & 73209 were allocated to it since this pair had also worked the 2 previous tours to use 73s as well.

Coach G! Maybe next time we are on a tour together we can have a chat! :lol:

I was also on this tour from Reading and have a couple of points I have noticed reading this report. Firstly, we left Reading at 09:09, so 9 mins late! Secondly, the shunter at Didcot is 08757. Thirdly, from Cardiff we did run on the Up Relief before crossing on to the Up Main at the...

Has it been officially renumbered then? Not seen any mention of this anywhere else. Also there is a photo on the Railway Herald website of it in the distance and that states it is numbered 57312. http://www.railwayherald.co.uk/imaging.centre/showimage.php?image=210988&gallery=X2 --- old...

I thought there was 5 spare TSOs in the XC HST fleet after they reduced the formations to 2+7 from 2+8 last year. Presumably as Craigentinny is there home depot this is where they will be parked.

It was posted on wnxx that the tests were deferred for a couple of weeks.

We literally crossed straight over to the line that goes through P13 and reversed there. It was near the loop where the Holyhead - Piccadilly ATW units park waiting to return to Wales!).

Maybe not strange but definitely obscure for me was the following one: Manchester Piccadilly to Crewe via Warrington Bank Quay after departing P3 at Piccadilly, all due to an incident in the Wilmslow area! It was an ATW service which reversed to go through P13 at Piccadilly, P1 at Oxford...

Was the loco green with a lower gold band? If so there are 2 ex fGW 47s (811 & 816) at Basford Hall in this livery. The 4 fGW 57s are blue (602, 603 & 605) or in all over GWR green (604).

67010 is stored at Crewe IEMD as far as I'm aware. Not heard anything about it being moved to Doncaster.

When I saw it at Sheffield 43321 was one of the power cars, 43384 was the other, so should be the same set.

I saw it yesterday at Sheffield. The set is missing 45003, the Trailer Composite Catering coach!

National Rail now reporting that normal service expected at 1230.

It has been posted on wnxx that Cargo-D have gone into voluntary liquidation.

Should be an interesting trip on 1K39 then as on wnxx there are posts that make reference to the fact that 90016 cannot reach 110mph. If that is the case will VT be happy with a loco that will lose even more time than normal on 1K39. As an example 1K39 will usually be around 10mins late at...

I have seen reports on UK Rail of 73208 working with 73213 on an engineers train. So 73213 likely to be the other loco you saw today.

I notice that with the 150/2 reforms being now done that 2 sets (210 & 220) should be a colourful mix of Centro green and Network WM blue!

Looking at the 2nd picture as well looks like it 150204 that can be seen.

325010 is the unit in question.
