RHTT Season 2026

[Amos390]

Toton’s 3J84 running about 80 mins late due to it having to reblast the line between Kirkby-In-Ashfield and Mansfield Woodhouse, which added on top of a 40 min delay (which was reduced by 10-15 mins or so before it was turned back on itself)

Tonbridge RHTTs seem very inconsistent this year

3W74/3W90 haven't actually started yet - the handful of moves using those headcodes in September
were just shakedown runs.

I presume this is due to the unseasonably mild weather in the South East meaning leaves haven't
started falling to any significant extent yet.

Interesting that NR have that level of control and insight over the operation, I wonder if this will have the opposite effect in December. I should note that the Horsham MPVs are also inconsistent.

As a gardener in the SE it seemed the leaves started to fall earlier than usual this year BUT since then it has been nowhere near a large amount of leaves overall.

Mind you all it takes is heavy wind to bring a lot of leaves down.
Plus if wet weather or condensation on the rails then the leaves have a better chance to stick where they are least wanted !.
