Almost certainly I would think, 60099 is a no as it will be busy working 6M51 at 1400 while 60029 is due to arrive into Willesden at 1357 with 6Z20 from Angerstein Wharf leaving 60046 as the logical option


60046 working delayed (0140) loaded 0100 6A26 Rickerscote to Quainton Railhead with 60055 DIT, 1034 6M27 Aylesbury North Loop to Wembley Receptions empties with 60055 DIT

60099 working 0137 6C50 Bristol East Depot to Quainton Railhead empties, loaded 0742 6M51 to Quainton Railhead

60029 working 0358 6O11 Willesden to Angerstein Wharf (Tarmac) empties and loaded 1133 6Z20 return

56045 working 0803 0A21 Aylesbury Sidings to Quainton Railhead, 1019 0A28 Aylesbury North Loop to Aylesbury Sidings - 1638 0A52 -

60046, 60055 DIT & 56045 worked 0953 6M27 Quainton Railhead to Aylesbury North Loop empties

60046 - 1400 0D45

60099 & 56045 - 1902 6V54

60022 & 56103 are at Rectory Colwick TMD on maintenance and 60028 is on maintenance at Leicester LIP


I've seen facebook rumours today that the Penmaenmawr Quarry to Quainton Railhead work is finishing this week, it does seem to tie in with the current lack of paths on RTT for next week, various 'suggestions' are being thrown against the wall including the regular failure of the loading equipment at Penmaenmawr and that GBRf and/or EPR are taking over the work, a more believable reason is that the requirement has been delivered to Quainton, as usual we will see in good time
Cheers for the gen @ExRes .
It has been confirmed that EPR will take over the work that colas rail did for them, But I’m not sure if the GBRf claims are true.
There is a 4/6D47 pen-wellington path added onto the WTT in the December changes, but no evidence that it will run yet. We will have to see as time passes on.
Shame to see DCR leaving the coast as well.
