I've never had any issues with the staff at Blackpool North., personally I know most of them and they know me back from previous work. I visited Blackpool, for couple days for family on 13th-15th May. Even staying in the new Holiday Inn across the road from the station!. Upon arrival 9P47 AWC...

Took a trip out to Crewe & Stafford yesterday main aim to see LSG Peppercorn Blue Peter anyway that isn't what I'm here for. I saw plenty of action from the new 805s while on test, crew training runs etc. The following was noted: 805001 805002 805005 805006 805008 805012

Saw 805004 still in white this morning at Wigan NW heading back to Euston following a late 1M10, although RTT seems to suggest it was swapped with 805002 at Crewe. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:S13630/2024-03-12/detailed Video:

Thank you for this, I believe there somewhere between Swinton and Pendleton as there was a lot of machinery when I passed yesterday evening. Will go for a nosy later today tomorrow.

Sadly the ECML has had a bit of a rough old day today. I this morning was heading to York for the day while on my TP 802 outside of Huddersfield we got an announcement that our train was been terminated at Leeds due to an incident near Chester-le-Street which turned out to be a fatality sadly...

Would anyone be able to obtain the consist from the Binliner 6J34 from Runcorn to Brindle Heath yesterday (08/02) please? I'm sure it was 66557? leading as it passed Salford Crescent. I missed a few wagons while getting off the train. Any help much appreciated.

I would imagine 777043/045 may end up going to Long Marston once 5Z46 arrives. I can only think 3x 777s are due to arrive in Dollands Moor ready for transfer up North. That been said I'm sure I heard that Walton MSC was due to be all cleared out of all units along with the wagons from Traffic...

Confirmed 777029 is on the way to Long Marston. Question is for storage or other for issues unknown?

Anyone know why the flows to and from Leyland B Leyland has died off? Quite regularly there flow with GBRf that ran most days and also Freightliner to/from Tunstead which as also gone quiet.

Monday seems to be going via ECML, Hexham to Carlisle Upperby. No further paths to Crewe. Should be Class 20 + SNG 5Z98 Joppa Straight to Carlisle Upperby https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:18462/2023-11-27/detailed

37608 + 730047

Same one indeed!. Same three just arrived into Crewe Ex Manchester Direction. I believe the runs are to/from Longsight Up n Down Goods Loop.

I saw a 15 Car line up before of 730101 + 730103 & 730206 earlier next to Dallam, Warrington. It worked 3Q58 1628 Dallam Junction to Oxley Car. M.D.

1M96 Ex Willesden now forms 1S96 ex Warrington RMT to Shieldmuir. This changed in May 2023 timetable change over. Only in the last couple of weeks 1M03 Ex Shieldmuir that forms 1S55 Ex Warrington back has stopped. I think 1M36/1S05 that runs between Shieldmuir/Daventry has maybe? replaced it?

Sorry It's the way I work things out at my end, making it easier for me.

Thank you for clarifying this, this is a big help and solves my query. So much info out there that I get lost quite quick in it all.

Could anyone confirm to me what the plans are regarding the 730s? So many stuff going about I'm lost. Any help is always appreciated.
