Those are the correct 68 diagrams for a weekday leaving Marylebone - weekend diagrams are different. There is the chance of a diagram being DMU instead of 68 but this isn't frequent so I highly doubt the majority of those were DMU on a weekday.

I have been here since just after 1040 I missed the 68 on the one just leaving it was a silver one. I have seen only units up to now and 2 x 66 on freight

I am here now the only 68 that was in any of those above was 1040 nothing since
after 1040 there is only the 1110 so far
The 1110 was 168215 substituting for a loco hauled set.
The 1310 should be a loco hauled set and is running 10 minutes later into Marylebone, due to arrive 1252

Sorry if this question has been asked a lot, but I've had a quick search and didn't find what I was after

Does anyone have any timings for Class 170 Greater Anglia and Crosscountry services? Preferable to be easily accessible from Oxford area

I do remember there was a Crosscountry service around the Cheltenham Spa/Gloucester/Newport area but I honestly cannot find it. And Greater Anglia services should be accessible via Liverpool Street but I haven't looked yet.

The reason for me asking this is, I've recently been to Edinburgh and /the midlands/ so have seen some ScotRail and London Midland 170's, and live near Oxford Parkway so plenty of 168/3 (as you know, these are essentially 170's) and would like to see some Crosscountry and Greater Anglia units

Thanks

Anybody have the rear 2 units for the
2K94 1738 Hayes (Kent) to London Charing Cross service tonight (24/10)

465035 was leading if that helps. The platform at Charing Cross was rammed when I alighted so couldn't move back to ID then.

Thanks in advance :)

XC 170s work Stansted Airport/Leicester - Birmingham New Street & Nottingham - Birmingham/Cardiff services.

GA 170s generally work Peterborough - Ipswich, Cambridge - Norwich & Cambridge - Ipswich services as well as some turns on the Anglian branches from Norwich/Ipswich

1G23 1040 London Marylebone to Birmingham Snow Hill
Chiltern Railways service

I think it's either 68015 or 68011 (seen some conflicting info elsewhere as to which was working "Diagram 3" that the above service is part of) - probably 68015. (They're both in the silver Chiltern livery so that doesn't help.)

UPDATE: corroborated via other sources it was 68015.

The Chiltern 68s are a bit tricky as the day-to-day movements are on Genius I believe and they just show on TOPS as "Wembley LMD" when they're on the Chiltern workings (when they're clearly all not sat at Wembley depot). Chiltern 68s are ones that generally you need someone with the special magic boxes to identify...
