A fairly poor day considering how positively it started.

Lots of swapping around during the day:
HD01 works 1W96 to Holyhead
HD02 taken out at Crewe due to DVT issues
HD04 to work 16:49 Cardiff to Manchester for loco swap
HD05 swapped to 10:53 Cardiff to Manchester and rest of diagram.
HD06 to enter service on 17:30 Crewe to Manchester/18:30 Manchester to Cardiff.

Tomorrow sees HD01 out of Holyhead, 67025+HD03 (V33) and 67013+HD04 (V31) working out of Crewe with 67017+HD06 (W11) and 67020+HD07 (W13) working out of Canton.

67015 Is also planned to head light engine Crewe to Canton in the morning.

67017 set 6
Didn’t appear off ATC till about 19.40 for 1V62 & it’s still not left Crewe
As of 20.15
There was a points failure within ATC which prevented it leaving any earlier, but it does appear to have come into further trouble now. Will cause issues as HD02 & HD03 already in Crewe with two more on route ex W63 & W65.

67008 set 1 & 67029 set 5
Changing diagrams
008 set 1, 1W61 & 1V62
029 set 5, 1W57 V46, W65.
HD05 needs to finish in Crewe for an exam over the weekend. Not too sure why it went out on the second crewe departure than the first than was planned.

There will be more swaps through the day either swapping one of the sets out of Crewe or not having HD04 finish back there to avoid overloading it again.

This afternoon sees HD01 swap to 14:53 from Cardiff, with 67025+HD03 planned to enter service at 15:30 on W59 from Crewe to Manchester with a 197 covering Cardiff to Crewe, should be 67025s first passenger work for a few months.

Tomorrow should then see 67008+HD01 and 67025+HD03 working out of Canton, 67013+HD04 and 67017+HD06 (if its fixed) out of Crewe.

Sunday is planned for HD03 working from Canton and HD04 from Crewe.

HD04 is on B exam from Monday if I'm correct?

It's fairly imminent but it's got a couple of days slack at the moment so it can cover for HD02 and HD05 which are both out of traffic with DVT brake issues and awaiting tyre turning respectively.
