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 !.

It would appear there has been a loco swap in Toton with 66733 'Cambridge PSB' replacing 66754 'Northampton Saints', the reason for this I do not know, but 733 now out operating a VSTP 3J88 alongside 705 'Golden Jubilee'. It was brought into Toton on 0F88 from Doncaster Down Decoy Gbrf and 754 left on 0D01 back to Doncaster Down Decoy Gbrf
