If anyone is able to let me know the power cars on the 15:00 Plymouth - Pad that would be great. I should be able to get the rear one when I get off, front one I'm not so sure about, possibly 0/1 79?

Don't know head code without looking it up, sorry!

The two green 47s are 47811 and 47816 and the Riviera 47 is 47848 (Titan Star) I think

Do the Eurostar 373s have two numbers for each end? If so any idea what the 373 is which is on today's service to Brussels, with 373106 leading?

That's perfect, thanks very much High Dyke!

Edit - I'm now mistrusting my notes from last night - can somebody also confirm that the 19:03 Pad - Penzance was 43009 and 43144? (Same day, 03/10)

Thanks in advance!

Unless the rake has been split and re-matched ( which is rare but has happened a bit recently ) it *should* be 373105 on the other end.

Hi,


Could somebody confirm which 395s worked today's 1J25 0953 Margate to St Pancras International. I believe it was 395023 and 395021 but that's just from memory as I forgot to write it down.


Thanks

Can someone tell me the power cars on these HSTs please:

26th September: 1B63 1715 Paddington to Carmarthen
2nd October: 1L34 0728 Swansea to Paddington
3rd October: 1L54 1155 Cardiff to Paddington

Just the two power cars are what I'm interested in, not bothered about the coaching stock. Thank you!

Thanks Peter.

And any idea for the other 373 which goes with 373005?

It *should* be 373006, but I'm pretty sure this is one that has been reported as being a mixed set within the past few months, so don't take that as gospel...

The numbering, if the sets are not mixed, will always be odd number lowest, even number = odd number + 1.

1.) the 70 hauling the crewe bas hall-southampton 70018 on 4O49.

3a.)the grand central 43 HST power car at crewe lnwr 02/10/14 43468

5.)the class 20 hauling 66422 light from Carlisle N.Y-crewe bas hall 20305 on 0K05.

7.)the 325s on the warrington-willesden 325006/005/004 on 1A91.

8.)the 325s on the willesden-shieldmuir 325001/003/015 on 1s96.

9.)the 325s on the other warrington-willesden 325002/008/016 on 1A97.

26th September: 1B63 1715 Paddington to Carmarthen 43022/LA62/43079 (likely, as that pair were with set LA62 on both 21st and 27th September).
2nd October: 1L34 0728 Swansea to Paddington Set OC34, currently 43124/43145, so unless there's been a power car swap in last few days....? (Which there'd be no way of telling through TRUST).
3rd October: 1L54 1155 Cardiff to Paddington Set OC35, currently 43162/43191, so unless there's been a power car swap in last few days....? (Which there'd be no way of telling through TRUST).

Sadly there was a rope blocking access to the rear unit so I couldn't get the number, they be small.

I'd caution that it's not unknown for power cars to not match the rake they're stuck on to - the only reliable way of being 100% sure of what's on the end is to see the actual power car at each end, not just one of the trailers in each half.

Even then, you'll need to look for the small painted number on the power car as you cannot 100% rely on the bigger number because the panels are sometimes switched round so that it looks as if the power cars are matching the trailers when they aren't.

Could anybody tell me what was on

03/10/14

Are these three for today (Monday 6th October)? If so:

1H10 0715 Charing Cross - Hastings 375619
1H80 1050 Hastings - Charing Cross 375912
2F34 1206 Sevenoaks to London Charing Cross 465002 + 465180.

1C95 03/10 almost certainly 43009/43144, they are attached to set LA01 today, which worked that service on 3rd October.

03/10/14
1O94 17:32 NCL-SOU 220034
1C80 19:29 SHF-STP 222002
1D69 19:32 LDS-LBO Think you mean 1D69 1932 STP-LBO, in which case 43052/NL03/43089.
