I think that *could* be the Northern Belle. When I have paid attention to 68s a while ago I seem to recall the train is in RTT as 95mph and 455 tonnes and it tends to start off from Crewe CS. Appears its start point is Cleethorpes for passengers in this case which does not make sense ?. Someone else will know for definite what this is.


Sorry, I know its the Northern Belle :p
I would like to know what locos are down to work it!


Thanks, Sam

Further digging and my best guess is 57303 and 57312 as these were down as BELL on some list I had from about 11:00 this morning. This has held true when I have seen it against 68s so I would bank on it.

Right, thanks Peter.

Although I've just noticed the 68 TOPS listing from earlier on posted on the previous page of this thread and noticed the BELL next to 68002 & 68017

68002 XHVE BASFDHALL GRESTYBMD N BELL 13D B
....
68017 XHVE GRESTYBGE GRESTYBGE F N BELL 11D A

Gosh, that's correct. I did not spot that even though it was posted in reply to my query about the RTC workings :oops:.

A strange request I know, but could anyone tell me what unit has worked the Sunday's only 1W40 0830 Cardiff Central to Manchester Piccadilly for the last four weeks excluding last Sunday (18/09) due to engineering work? Just trying to work out what is generally on this service. I know in theory anything could turn up especially on a Sunday on the Marches as it can be anything from a 175 to a 153 but I just wanted to see if a pattern emerged! Thank you.
