Hi,

Does anyone know which diagrams (Mon-Fri, Sat and Sun) the newly refurbished Wrexham & Shropshire train(s) is running? I would like to have a ride on one but need to know which departures are most likely to be run by the refurbished set(s) in order to do so.

Thanks.

Set will be on a different diagram each day. They are sequential so it is possible to predict - but that assumes no failures or other disruption.

Wrexham & Shropshire are launching the new 18.33 service tomorrow that has been made possible by the improved linespeeds between Princes Risborough and Bicester that have been put in place this weekend, so I would bet that it will be on that service on Monday. Therefore I suspect on Tuesday it will be on the 05.12 Wrx Myb, 12.23 Myb Shr and 16.07 Shr Myb then on Wednesday 07.23 Myb Wrx, 11.23 Wrx Myb and 16.33 Myb to Wrx.

82303 + 67013 worked the first run of the re-timed 1J80, now 07:23 from Marylebone as opposed to 06:45. It passed Princes Risborough at 08:02, with an old set of coaches, going rather slowly as it was right up the backside of a 165 which had departed at 08:00.

67010 + Chiltern 82302 worked 1P01, also with an old set of coaches, passing Princes Risborough at 08:18.

1P03 was worked by 67012 + 82301, also with an old set of caoches, passing Risborough at 10:54.

Presumably, the new set of coaches is at Wembley to work a later train, perhaps the re-timed departure at 18:33, previously 20:03.

Cheers, Geoff
