Has anyone spotted the use of a bowser to empty toilet tanks at Lime St - a number of occurences are shown in the new diagrams. I'm surprised its permitted but apparently they already do it at Northampton, and rather surprisingly, Redditch.

230004 was involved in a signalling farce at Bletchley Depot on Thursday morning which caused the units fuel pump to spark a minor fire. These things aren't getting much luck!
