Morning all,

Bit of a big ask but I'm just on my way to a very rare trip to Liverpool. I've got a few hours spare this morning so wondered if anybody could help with what any if the following units are on today please. I'm happy to sit and wait on either line if I know they're out so if it makes it any easier, just the whereabouts of any that aren't out working today would be very useful too as I could specifically go and find them to save waiting if they're not going to be out.

777006
777022
777029
777033
777035
777043
777045
777047
777053

Many thanks, Chris

Any idea what happened to 0z90 seems to have disappeared at Clapham junction, can't see it on any signalling diagrams.

Thanks again for the help earlier, thankfully now cleared my 777s with a spot of good luck. Interesting to see that there were a few changes as the morning went on, and on the northern line I noted a few single units that then returned the other way as 8-cars. Also got my last 2x 230s which was a nice bonus :D

Good morning.

Does anyone know what loco will be on the 1Q52 Eastleigh East Yard - Eastleigh East Yard today? RTT says it’s a test train.

Many thanks in advance.

Afternoon all,
Just wondered if anybody can confirm what's currently on 1W63 Cardiff-Manchester. It should be a 67 hauled set and RTT is still showing it as such by TFW app says it's only 3 coaches today due to "more trains than usual needing maintenance" which suggests it might actually be a unit. Any info would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks, Chris

Ah ok, obviously the same info as RTT is getting then. TfW shows "Facilities on the 16:53 Cardiff Central to Manchester Piccadilly due 20:15.
This is due to more trains than usual needing repairs at the same time.
Will be formed of 3 coaches instead of 5. First class not available. Catering is reduced. Toilet facilities are reduced."
Asking as I was booked on it with 1st class ticket but couldn't make it so wanted confirmation before requesting a refund.
