Guess the Train...

[superalbs]

465 005 at Waterloo East at 12.11 on 11/03/00; a lucky shot from a passing Thameslink service approaching Blackfriars...

@superalbs sorry, but it couldn't be a 365 as that wouldn't be within the rules as none are still in service.

Very good point, I had forgotten I must admit!

Try this:

 

[Class15]

Also, both 86 and 87 are not in regular service in the UK…

But they are used on railtours, and thus are active of the national rail network, and are within the scope of the rules

I think that is very borderline, as some steam engines would then count, but never mind.

Think it’s okay as far as the rules go - the rules don’t state regular active service. Though perhaps they should.

Moving on, 730?

Not a 730.

Oops, I thought that was an 86 - they're almost indistinguishable to me.

Also, as they're used on railtours, I would class that as being used in 'active service' as according to the rules.

Easiest way to telll is the 86 has a ‘triple’ windscreen and the 87 a double.
