EMR Class 360's

[RailWonderer]

Can confirm that normally guaranteed 360 workings like the 16:32 and 16:44 off LST both bins today. The 360s must be withdrawn already and are only pending transfer. This morning I was on 101 and 106 that were still in service.

Surprisingly no short forms showing up on journey check, they probably have enough rolling stock to run the mostly complete timetable. When they’re all gone it will be short forms galore. I give it until November.

Perhaps they are assuming that the 720s will enter traffic next month?

Does anyone know if today’s movement to Cricklewood is actually happening?

It's not shown as cancelled yet, so keep an eye on Realtime trains. As it could still come.

Yeah I’ve seen - seems as if almost all the movements from Ilford around that time are in the same position.

If this move is the unit alone, it could still run.

If a loco was due to haul it though, it is very unlikely as all loco movements today have been cancelled.

I think it’s being hauled by the 47s - they ran to Ilford earlier today from Leicester I believe.

Nope, cancelled. So that tells me it's only matter of time before the Cricklewood move is cancelled too.

Oh no, that was two 315's. 315815 & 315801 for anyone who wants to know.

I wasn't suprised by this, judging by the fact that all Ilford loco moves today were cancelled.

November has been mentioned - but a Southend driver I spoke to a couple of days ago, says there seems to be little chance of that happening as they keep 'breaking'.

The 720 introduction seems to be mirroring the 755 introduction at the Northern end of the patch a year ago. Older stock going off-lease before the new stock is ready. Do Bombardier simply not have enough resources to get the 720's in service until the 710's rollout is complete?

 

[James321]

When class 720 start enter in service to Clacton?

You're best asking here.

I wonder why they've started scheduling these moves at noon or the crack of dawn all the time now?

Engineering works as part of Crossrail I believe - there are blockades on the GEML every weekend but not sure how long for.

Oh ok, it's a bit of a pain for us trainspotters having to go out at the very end or very begginning of the day and getting mediocre low light shots because it's still dark. Sodding engineering works, eh?

With no engineering, the number of trains to spot would be zero.

I know that, I'm just saying it always seems to be at a bad time!

No it wasn't I saw it today! There was two schedules and one was cancelled and then the second one was created & used.

Oddly enough I noticed today that the top speed label in the cab hasn’t been updated in the modified units - I’m guessing this will be changed once the units are refurbished?
