Morning all, can anyone please help with locations or any workings for the following... 68001, 68002, 68006, 68016, 66430 and 88005. I can probably get to Gresty Bridge later today but if none of these are there then it's not worth me going there so will save me the trip. Thanks for any help.

68001 is there, 68002 at Sellafield, 68006 in Scotland, think 66430 is at Mossend Down Yard, 88005 is currently on Kingmoor RHTT duties for the time being.

It’s possible 66430 worked back to Daventry in early hours on 4M49, which if it did, it’s likely to be on 4S44 back to Mossend at 1205, Basford Hall 1328. Need someone with TOPS access to confirm.

Thanks very much for that, will be worth going then. Is it also possible for anyone please to identify the two TPE 68s in the yard at Warrington Bank Quay? Just a bit too far for my eyesight to read as I just passed!!

There was a departure from Sellafield this morning to Crewe, but don’t know if 68002 was on that as another 68/88 combination worked in yesterday too.

Cheers Rhys. Was 66430 on 4M49 this morning?
It might well have been, whatever works 4S44 will give you the answer to what worked 4M49.
Edit: 66430 + 66433 on 4S44 so they both worked 4M49

Can I just bring peoples attention to the following requests please:
  • Only genuinely urgent requests are to be posted in this urgent thread please; everything else belongs in the non-urgent thread
  • Please keep urgent requests concise and minimalist and avoid repetition (e.g. avoid asking for a huge list of units/locos which would be time consuming to answer and/or asking for the same units/locos on multiple occasions)
  • Please ask politely and thank those who provide the information (but, to keep the thread concise, please avoid posts that are dedicated to just saying thanks; for example: thanking as part of your request in advance / thanking for the previous request the next time you post a new request / sending a conversation message of thanks are all fine and will be much appreciated)
Many thanks :)

Thanks, not sure I'll be able to get to see them, currently at Nantwich for pub lunch having just seen 68 001 on Gresty Bridge from the passing train.

It’s 66846, 66849, 67023 and 67027 on that RHTT circuit, so will be two of them (would have to check which tomorrow, but the 66s worked it last Sunday).

66849 which ee by gum seems to have a northern accent, as does 70816 but which has been sighted at Westbury today. Fingers crossed.
With 66846 on RHTT at Swindon Transfer Yard. 70816 travelled down from Barnetby to Westbury on Friday
