Tomorrow can someone kindly check what the following units (and loco) are up to:

90009
387225
700105

I assume the following trio are still enjoying the South Yorkshire sunshine:
321303
321304
321448

Many thanks in advance :)

[And an even sillier question, will someone be around on Saturday morning if I post a list of some northern MUs/VTEC if they could be super kind enough to check for me? :)]

You're welcome :), I would look up 219's evening runs nearer the time but I book off at lunchtime I'm afraid

Thank you again! Managed to get to Twyford to see 106 working the 1212 from Paddington and in a remarkable piece of good luck less than half an hour later 219 came through in the opposite direction! Both needs seen :D

I had 150149 home from work late on Thursday, Kite, so that's unlikely to have found its way to Yorkshire in the interim.

Could I get allocations for these if possible:

43366

170636
170637

153356

170512
170516
170631
172217
172331

350106
350252

It could still pop up on something like a Manchester Victoria - Leeds via Rochdale working ;)

I'm guessing you are heading to Birmingham today

Very true.

Only if I get some gen on requirements, not going all that way to stand around in the cold and wet if they're all having a Saturday off!

Hi All

Just missed three Locos light engine through Altrincham heading towards Northwich/Chester (just before 11:00am) if anyone could tell me what they were?

Looked like 3 x 66 but the front one may have been a 67 (I was passing on a train in the other direction!)

Cheers

Cheers, I can ignore any VTEC services at Leeds later (unless one of the 90s randomly turns up) and focus on 158s :)

Can anyone help with traction on Sunday morning's Skipton to Belmond Yard working. My dad saw it but didn't get a number, a Colas locomotive.

Thank you.
