DRS 37510 looks like 37515...
http://37517smodernlocopics.fotoblog.co.uk/p20401143.html - DRS owned and in DRS livery at Barrow Hill there.
So not really modified with new lights etc...
37229, 37194, 37510, 37515, 37087, 37029 are all unmodified examples, 37667 (in DRS at Barrow Hill)...
Temple Mills is certainly shut down, that L/E move not to TM. 37694 and several shuntser (bar one) are stored locked away inside. Old Oak Common and Hihter Green will be taking up any extra work now that Temple Mills has gone.
That staement is incorrect. Its full rediness for return starting late Aug early Sep.Either way is needed, and its being fitted with all the important specs. So should be one hell of a beast when running. However saying that, yes it has been a while
Not quite...
37410 on hire WKCK to Margam 20th - 24th Oct 37425 now at MG not operational so N/ONE for tomorrow.
37422 at EH undergoing fitting of certain equipment for signilling, due back in traffic Nov. Work still progressing on it. 37410 is apparantly a tempory replacement untill 37422...
Indeed, two were at Surbiton today, well just slighty South of the station (Esher end) Both werent there at the same time. Both with EWS 66's for traction. Morning one might have been T&T but had one EWS on it, afternoon one had EWS 66 on it, no tail loco.
37406 now allox to OC so a decision to just stick 37406 on it due to 37405 not being needed for whatever reason. Typical. Still booked for a single EWS 37.
EWS 37422 allox OC - EH tomorrow. No idea of timings. Wont be on the above charter for all you wishful thinkers who want it to be. As it wont be. Needs breaks done, and to go on the loadbank, then be tested. All takes time. Its moving to EH as EH has more capacity than OC and much better load bank.
DRS 37602 and DRS 37607 running very late on the SERCO at Wimbeldon station in the morning sun. Fastline 56303 on the Birch Choppice - Grain, 66083 on steel, refrubished 442 and a 159 and others...

No, its called while going on a 3 day holiday on the way to Alton Towers stopping off at Bescot for a quick drink, just to see whats at the station and then going shopping with her for 2hrs in the nearby stores ie Next.

While travelling to the North for an enjoyable 3 day holiday with the girlfriend :D Stopped off at Bescot and Stafford for a few photos...

A 15min stop at Bescot was ok, with some shunters and Freightliner traction and some...
