Spending many summer days spotting at Crewe in the 1990's 37408 became one of my favourites. I fondly recall seeing it on the Holyhead trains in its worn Scottie dog large logo livery. I also rememeber being gutted when it was repainted into EWS, i think it had just been put in this livery for...
Can someone please confirm for me which depot in Crewe is now known as LNWR. Is it the old Crewe Carriage Depot?
Also is there any public viewing places to view what is on the depot/sidings. On the WNXX website there is a picture of 90050 which i believe is now stored in the depot yard. It...
Can someone please settle a debate my Dad and I are having.
I'm sure we saw this loco at Bridgnorth on the SVR when we visited in July 1993. However my Dad reckons i am wrong and that the loco wasn't based there then. I was only 9 at the time so i could be wrong but i'm convinced. I'm sure i...
Does anyone know if this is out and about at the moment?
It is the only member of the class that has managed to escape me. I know it should be on the Holyhead - Cardiff services, although i've been informed the 3 locos in Arriva blue do tend to stray away from this diagram on occasion.

I am in London on business and am not returning home until late afternoon tomorrow and would love a photo of the above set / 91007 in its JB livery.
Has it been out this week?
If I go to Kings...
Does anyone have any photos of 08500 in it's red Thomas 1 guise. I have fond memories of seeing this loco acting as York station pilot in 1989, when i think it was allocated to Neville Hill. However i have never managed to find a picture of it in this guise.
Can anyone help?
This is my first post on this board. So firstly hello to everyone.
In August 1994 (possibly 1993) i remember seeing an 08 running around Crewe Diesel Depot. I am trying to find out the number, i took a photo which i now cant find but i couldnt see the number in the photo anyway.
The loco...
