HST Allocations

[Durpcat3_YT]

Hi all, I'm currently looking into HST allocations and can't find anything concrete about where any of them were allocated. If anyone has any information about 43070 and 43087 that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks - Durpcat

TOPS is wrong, as it often is, then. They were scrapped in 2022 and then de-registered on the national vehicle register.

I think TOPS needs an update in the SBXL pool

Porterbrook have correctly de-registered them both on R2, which is the master database for vehicles on the GB railway network. If TOPS hasn't updated the issue is either with TOPS or the data interface.

Thanks for that, my own info and knowledge starts to get vague after the end of their Virgin XC days, particularly their latterday use with FGW.
