Anyone going to whip up an activity with the WYPTE 321 working a Leeds-Kings X vice 91s after the Sandy incident when the fleet was wholesale withdrawal? Could cross a pair of WAGNs 317s going the other way on other Leeds workings!

Hi AndersS I had a week in Norway over the summer with a few mates and managed to get a bit of cranking done. As it happened 69078 was one of the units we had! How old are those units? We were impressed that some of them had vending machines inside which is new to me! Could you tell me if the loadin...

Personally, I don't think Network Rail would give a damn if that happens. Just see how happy they are to close mainlines on Saturdays & Sundays... Agreed, and nots not just Saturdays and Sundays round here- West Coast Mainline blockade central! Two weeks full Hemel-Bletchley closure last summer, ev...

Yet more 158 shuffling...
(gen from the junction)

158782/859/860/861 First (x Wessex) to Arriva
158846/847/852/854 Arriva to Central
158792/794/795/796 Central Trains to First

No idea what that achieved....

Several miles of track have unofficially vanished from the mothballed Claydon Jn-Bletchley line at the hands of the "local" gyppos. There is some progress, the line is being relayed...to all of about a mile beyond the flyover!

Hi all, few pictures from a trip from Birmingham to Plymouth/Exeter today added to my fotopic site, including: 43064/076 on the Leeds-Plymouth/Plymouth-York turn 33103 shunting around Exeter with a saloon A strange 57/43 combination at Newton Abbot 47826/851 at New St off the evening racex http://ww...

This collection has a few more from Ipswich SP showing the variation over the years. http://www.locostabling.fotopic.net/c145057.html Was strange passing through last year with no cans stabled anymore, miss the things on liners, somehow a skoda or shed doesnt cut the mustard! Might not have been too...

Or Voyager mileage over the S&C....not so lucky you!

Stabled off ECS workings for kettlexs out of Victoria i think.

all lines are valid on the sleepers, just need to make a reservation to go in the seats. will need to pay a supplement for a berth. If the Fishguard run comes off in the new timetable, that would seem a good day out to me!

37425/419 doing two trips Cardiff-Glocester between Rhymneys. Didnt work Tuesday as stock was on exam, back out today. However it looks a tempoary measure as the diagram after the timetable change becomes Maesteg-Gloucester, meaning the platforms are too short for the hauled set. Latest rumour is th...

Just a quick (and shameless!) plug for my fotopic site which i have today added a small collection of 16 various phots from 2005 in the Leighton area. No Pendos!

Take a look if you have five minutes to spare, hopefully something to suit everybody!

I really dont see why the 321's can't be used for off peak services to and from Norwich. It would releive alot pf pressure on the class 90s. because some important businesspeople and politicans live it Norfolk, paying serious dosh for there seasons for their London commute and moaned (a lot!) when ...

yes, have been working various turns Liverpool St-Norwich recently as the standby set vice those unrelianle 90s in recent weeks/months. Class 317s also worked in the summer until 321s available i believe - try searching the archive of Anglia-gen yahoo group
