That is a DB Schenker steel train (6D11 is the real headcode), so the chances
of a Freightliner 66 working it are extraordinarily small, and as far as I know,
6D11 was 60-hauled yesterday...


Although you didn't say what type of train it was that you saw,
if I had to hazard a guess, I'd say it was the 4L79 Tees Dock to
Felixstowe liner train, hauled by 66588.

Many thanks for the information. (I'm new to the forum!) Looking back at RealTime trains website and you are correct!

Also this for today (Thurs 23rd April) again a 150/2 request -

2N91 1523 Manchester Victoria to Preston

Lastly a long shot but worth a go.
A light engine move for the Caledonian Sleeper from Polmadie to Crewe. A red and black blur to me as our train past it just south of Lancaster at 1812.
Was I right about the colour?
If so what was it? - struggling to think which is why I'm doubting the colours I believe I saw.

Thanks

Bodie

Can't help with the 150 but the locos where 90018 and 67007.

Two from today (Sunday 26th)

FL 66 on cement tanks southbound into Crewe (Mcr line) c.1600 today?

2 x 150/2 on 1530 Manchester - South Wales (seems to be a regular arrangement - uncomfortable, but plenty of seats! :D )
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Can anybody tell me whether the 1540 Euston - Manchester yesterday (Sat 25th) was a 9 or 11 car Pendolino?

Thanks.

Two from me for today 28th April please:

1) The Colas class 60 at Grantham this afternoon, 60 0x9; missed the middle digit! Would have been there at around 13.20.

2) The 16.09 Waterloo - Epsom - Guildford: 455 706 + 455 9xx.

Thank you.

There are no Colas 60s currently in traffic that are 600x9 (the locos being 60002/021/076/085/087/096). I'm assuming your working was the empty tanks off Rectory which although it had no reports did run http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/H27308/2015/04/28/advanced
This was reported to be 60021

Thank's for that, much appreciated. The information came from the Realtime trains website. Sorry for the confusion.

RTT cannot give real headcodes (apart from GBRf) for freight services.

In place of a the headcode for DB/FL/DRS/Colas trains is a four
character code which is random and changes from day to day.

The crew probably cleared it off. If I were you I would call chiltern to ask.
