66706+717 (top and tailed)

MARK


There was this working back to Eastleigh East Yard early this morning - same headcode (6G26), engineers' train with GBRf 66706 and 66717 on it.

Maybe coincidence... but could well be your loco(s). I'm not familiar with the geography down there - is it feasible something could be working overnight between Worcester Park (where your working went to) and Raynes Park, then head back to "base" from there in the morning?


EDIT: ha ha :lol: as usual Freightmaster Mark gets there first - happy with my detective work though :D

Thank you both, and yes - I imagine there may have been a possession overnight given that the train seems to vanish at Worcester Park and re-appear four and a bit hours later at Raynes Park.

Sadly, both 66s are dud for me, but still a less common sight here. Most of the time it's 73s and 37s and on the nocturnal NR related stuff - not that I'm complaining, especially if the 37s open up to full power opposite me... :D

Thanks Godfreycomplex :)

Should hopefully get 138 & 152, although 148 will have to wait until another day. I assume 029 & 032 will be coming out to play during the evening peak

Doesn't look like I can get that one tonight, although might be an outside chance of it forming the 0838 Penzance to London Paddington tomorrow morning (I will probably see it heading towards Penzance at Reading when waiting for 43152 to roll in from Cardiff)

114 & 522 pass Derby at 17:08 (1D70) & 18:37 (1V15)
637 passes Derby at 16:10 (1G46); 18:08 (1D72) & 19:37 (1V16)
That's pretty much it for today I'm afraid

Don't have diagrams I'm afraid, but re. 68010 it moved up from Wembley to Crewe on the 8th and has been in/around Crewe Gresty Road and Carlisle Kingmoor since, so not sure it'll be in around London this w/e (unless heading back south?)
