8/6:
196002 (Wolverhampton to Birmingham via Tame Bridge)

Another one into my book, doesn't help that they can get swapped over at Shrewsbury without it reflecting on RTT due to the manual signalling.

Result. I’ve found 002 and 012 very difficult to nail down.

Especially when it was a last minute decision to jump on a pair of 350s to Wolverhampton for a tight +2 (thankfully cross platform and the 350s were amazingly on time) after the service I was thinking it would be on turned out to be a 4 coach 196.

Also a late decision to go to Birmingham after my canal walk ending at Warwick Parkway.

Does having a loco fitted with standard gauge bogies count as new when you previously had it for haulage on Irish gauge bogies? N451 Melbourne to Mildura this time around and Melbourne to Swan Hill in March 2020.

At least the GN 387s are easier to get these days when on a travelcard due to the interworking of stoppers & fast services. At one point it was rare for them to stop even at Stevenage.

17/6:
Glasgow Subway:
305; 308; 309; 310 & 312

I did see potentially another unit out but couldn't ID it and ran out of time. I suspect my next trip (whenever that will be considering things potentially are changing with work) it will be harder to get winners.

701036 - Twickenham to London Waterloo

710374 - London Euston to Kenton

730021 - London Euston to Harrow & Wealdstone

Well done on clearing the 166's. I have one left (166205) which I believe is currently away for refurbishment.
