Has the use of Worksop now officially ended now with them all being at Crewe..I know this was announced but can 1 assume Worksop will no longer see the 93's

ROG have an agreement with DRS that they will help maintain the 93s with the support of the DRS engineering teams and stable them for n between jobs at Gresty Bridge/Crewe South Yard.

Saw elsewhere 90mph running of a class 93 was due to be trialled near Crewe last weekend but later cancelled. Anyone know when this is going to be retried?

Could that potentially be related to the 3Q** moves that have been operating out of South Yard to Wigan overnight recently? Based on Dan's allocations in post 2412, several of the locos are in South Yard.

Here's an example that ran last night: https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:K65734/2026-05-28/detailed
[URL redirects to Realtime Trains page for 3Q04]

EDIT: Railcam allocations have the above working as being operated by 93004 and 008. I wonder what wagons they were hauling.

Thanks.

Not many at Gresty, mainly hidden at Crewe South Yard.

Personally I am waiting for the next 458 scrap storage move to bring a pair of 93s down to Wimbledon. Probably from Derby RTC ?.

There haven't been any 458 scrap moves.
Correct - my brain failure. Storage moves not scrap moves.
(I will correct my original post)
That last storage move from Wimbledon to Long Marston used 93004 & 93010 btw. That was way back on 17/04/2026, 45 days ago !.
