Ah ok. There’s no good connection from Swansea then is there, GWR at either 0449 or 0557, the former is likely to have been missed if you were aiming for the TfW service, the latter will miss the connection in Cardiff by 5 mins.

That is slightly unusual, though thankfully the half-hourly service seems to be back next week. GWR slightly amended the minutes, but I always treat the London as being xx22 and then the others are just the additional which start at Maliphant and run in the Cardiff to London path (some are xx23 and there are variations early in the morning). The 0522 seems to be scheduled as 0529 now, I forgot what it was when Manchester was at 05:32/05:36. That would be fine for connection to 1W13 (having used it a lot myself over the years), but not much good if it is not running

1W11 HD07/67025 Cancelled this morning but still running as empty stock to Shrewsbury, due to the failure of 6M76 Dee Marsh steel train climbing Llanvihangel between Abergavenny and Hereford. Seems it was expected to have been held for a lot longer than it was so decision was made to run it ECS.

1W13 start is HD04/67022
1V31 start is HD05/67015
1V33 start is HD02/67029
1V91 start is HD01/67020.

Sorry to be "one of them" but there isn't a V in the Welsh language "F is V" "FF is F"

Well I see your point, but the village of Llanvihangel Crucorney lies very close to the English border, the locals speak English not Welsh, and maps show it as Llanvihangel with a V. Maybe we should just call it Pontrilas instead!

67007 is en-route to collect 67029+HD02 from Leominster. The rake will move a short distance to enable checks on the stock and infrastructure. Once this is complete it will then head to Crewe ETD for assessment/temporary storage.

HD01 is now working up to Holyhead on tonight’s 1W96, it means tomorrow they’ll be an unusual opportunity for a weekend run on the North Wales Coast, I presume that’s amended to run as such as there’s a few events on in Cardiff.

1V90 04:20 Holyhead - Cardiff and 1W96 17:23 Cardiff - Holyhead to run as a Mk4 tomorrow (Saturday)

Change for tomorrow should now see HD05 start from Crewe on 1W13 or 1V39.
67013 is also planned back to TfW heading from Crewe ETD to ATC.

Sunday is planned for HD03 out of Crewe and HD06 from Cardiff.
