This train above ran earlier with only one powercar, appears that there was a problem with the rear power car as around 1630 I saw one half in the Worcester S Hill long siding, any ideas as to what's happened?

Traction motor problem on 43180 that will require a wheel skate to move it, hence the rest of the formation going forward with just the one power car back to St Phillips Marsh.

Did it run without a power car on the back or did 43180 stay off at Worcester Shrub Hill?

Cheers, I wonder when that will happen.

Still sat in Worcester S Hill long siding today, any ideas when due to be moved?

To update this thread, i shall say i've heard that due to the nature of the problem with the powercar and the limited space to get a lorry large enough at it's current position in Worcester Shrub Hill long siding, it's going to be moved to Kiddiminster, where it can be loaded on to a lorry.

Does anyone have an idea when this will happen? Obviously i think it will be on a Sunday as the train can only move at 5mph.

If its anything like similar to the way GA just moved 90010 after a similar malady and in a similar predicament it'll probably be done overnight at the weekend.
