I caught it at 13.56 from Lime Street to Lea Green. Very nice in the DT, only minor issue is that the USB sockets are in a very awkward position.

1F60 is a 185

As I understand it only the second diagram is to be a 68 and even that will only be when trained crews are available


RE: TransPennine Express - St Helens Rider - 26/08/2019 14:12

As far as today is concerned, the whole diagram has been cancelled due to train fault.

There should have been a set swap on 1E39 but TP11 has failed so diagram caped.


RE: TransPennine Express - 313201 - 26/08/2019 16:28

I am not sure if this has been asked by anyone before but are there any other locos that can operate with the mk5 coaches in case of a 68 failure or in the unlikely event of an entire fleet failure.

My thoughts behind this were that if the highly unlikely event of a total fleet failure or locos being reassigned or loaned for any particular reason that it would be handy if there were other loco classes available to work the mk5s should the need arise

1F62 failed at Victoria, reportedly with defective wipers. VSTP for the ECS was incorrrectly shown to Ardwick.


RE: TransPennine Express - childwallblues - 27/08/2019 17:57

Todays 0656 was 185128. This did one round trip before being replaced by 68027 and TPE09. 185128 left Lime Street ecs presmably to Ardwick.
