Apparently 67014 hit something on the track that damaged the speedometer and also something else under the loco so it was on reduced power to Wembley and will need fixing. Last night SKIP10, is that Saturday night as 018 was not at Wrexham this morning, it was 013 & 012 on 1P01 & 1P03.

Hit a Pheasant that didnt half rattle arround at on point and 2 pigeons that I know of. Saturday night mate.

Has 67010 moved from Bescot now?

saw it there with 2 90s on Friday

I believe its gone back to Toton.

This is a mistake and will not make a passenger stop at Coventry.

Sounds like it wasnt supressed in the WTT, it would only be a pathing stop anyway.

67018 worked the 07:23 Wrexham to Marylebone this morning. I am hoping it will return on the 12:24 from Marylebone.

It came in for 67013 on sunday as the poor thing was only running on 3 legs.

Ah, I take it you were driving that working then? :)

If anybody's interested (I am, it gives me something to watch whilst on my way to work), 67018 was working what was presumably a slightly delayed 05:10 Wrexham to Marylebone this morning. Passed through New Street at half 7 leading the Cargo-D blue and grey carriage rake and 82304 on the rear.

Unless it was some sort of ECS working?

Cheers for clarifying the working.

I wondered how long the spare set would be in use and whether there was a further rake of refurbed mark 3s forthcoming. It seems a long time since the other W&S silver carriage rakes entered service. Was travelling on the Cargo-D spare rake yesterday evening, albeit in first class which is the only refurbed vehicle in the rake. I returned later on in standard class on a refurbed rake. The quality of the Wrexham and Shropshire interior refurb never fails to impress me every time I travel with them. :)
