LHCS Mk3 disposals

They seem to have sold the ATW ones as they were taken to Castle Donington for storage (not sure who the purchaser was)

ROG bought the ex-ATW vehicles (2 x RFM, 10 x TSO and 2 x DVT).

The first post on this thread shows them all. Anything numbered 102xx or 11xxx (with the odd exception) is/was a first class coach.

To be fair it hasn't been edited for three weeks so there'll doubtless be more to add to that list.

Good evening and Happy Easter,can anybody help me please? Does anyone know when carriage 12103 was taken for scrap please? I know it was last in service on the 24th December 2019 as I was informed by a member of Greater Anglia staff. I want to know as I own a pair of seats from the coach and am doing some research as I'm interested. Any help is much appreciated.
Thankyou.

Hey,

On my hunt for train seats I contacted Raxstar Sheffield and they said they do have a first class mk3 Greater Anglia carriage which could be a last resort substitute? Best of luck on your research in hope this was helpful in some way

Many Thanks

Just want to confirm with you all that 11079 is now scrapped, and was broken up at Wards in early March. Some reports say 82150 went too, but I have no confirmation on this.

I think they are / were some of the DB-owned vehicles that had taken root (probably literally after so many years) at Long Marston, be interesting if any others have finally been put out of their misery.

Perhaps Arriva wanting/needing to get out of Long Marston before Porterbrook take over the lease on the site?

Perhaps Arriva wanting/needing to get out of Long Marston before Porterbrook take over the lease on the site?

Possibly, though I'm surprised that some of those Mk3s and DVTs have survived in there for as long as they have. Many were down to use as parts donors anyway, and with no other Arriva TOC than Chiltern using Mk3s, with no likely future for these, it was about time Arriva finally disposed of them.

So Mk3-wise is almost nothing left at Long Marston?

So Mk3-wise is almost nothing left at Long Marston?

There's still a number of First Group owned HST Vehicles left in LM. I'm not sure what there is loco hauled wise though, other than a handful of ex Caledonian Sleeper and ex GA Mk3s...

... Speaking of which: It looks like the ex GA / Chiltern set at Eastleigh is about to come up to Long Marston today on this:

The above formation did run ablight 105 minutes late through Bristol Parkway earlier on today Tuesday the 13th April with the full formation off 8 coaches with a business zone livery coach on the rear .
With all the coaches with full decals on chiltern railways by arriva . Rake was formed off 8 coaches. However this made a superb pleasure to see 2x 20 on a rake off coaches bringing back many happy memories off those mid 1980s .
Saturday regional railways holiday maker specials. Shame it's going though.
