Hi, I was just doing some looking around my local to see if there was anything interesting going on and I noticed that this 6G65 has been held at Barrow hill since about 11am, I heard that the loco/s has a tpws fault, I'm not sure if you can find out what loco it was and if there's any loco that's been sent out to come and rescue it. Many thanks

UPDATE: Just seen this 0Z65 on the diagrams aswell if anyone can id that aswell

Thanks for the ID.

The TOPS posting showing it on Millerhill and no other Heavy Haul Rail loco in the area is what threw me.

Thanks, I am waiting for the FL70 thread but didn't want to miss them if they were on anything early. I can relax now I know they are not allocated.

The Chiltern Mk5 rakes don't seem to be showing on RTT this morning - would anyone know which rake is on the 11.02 Marylebone to Moor Street and 13.45 return please?

68029 has just arrived at Marylebone on 1H25 so I assume that's the 1102. Confirmed by sight as I'm stood next to it about to take a photo.

559 off to St Pancras Churchyard it appears
Thanks, I went to Southall to see it but unfortunately the photo was spoilt by the fact that 59203 was on the front of it! Then I needed to get back across London before the Friday evening manic rush. Will try again another day.

Oh no. Yeah they split. First loco comes off in the loop and the second one takes the first portion out then the first loco attaches to the remaining portion for the later departure
