I should be on the 17.14 Off Cardiff later, hopefully a first class service is available this time, I didn’t get it last time. @sd0733 will I get it tonight?

Believe it should be 67013 + HD04 on that tonight! Hope you have a good trip, supposing it goes well! I have 013 + HD04 down as 1W11/1V37 and 1W96 today.

Seems to have left Cardiff after a while. Currently 22 down near Shrewsbury as a result.

It's down for a Mk4 but afraid I can't help with the staffing situation.
Fingers crossed there is and you have a good trip.

Yes if everything sticks to plan it's HD04.

The 08:30 from Manchester was a Mk4 today, albeit only 4 carriages.

None of them are 4 carriages, they’re all 5 car rakes

There aren't any 4 car Mk4 sets. All have Been 5 car for months.

Ah okay so RTT must have made a mistake:

Realtime Trains | 1V37 0830 Manchester Piccadilly to Cardiff Central | 06/11/2024
