Is there a Chiltern timetable that highlights which trains are loco-hauled? I understand these are Birmingham Moor Street services.

Thanks! I may look them up and when I am in not much of a hurry to get to London, I can go via Birmingham, with seperate tickets if necessary.

The DBS Class 67s on the loco hauled Mainline services were due to finish yesterday. Their replacements due to start today are the DRS Class 68s of which 68010-15 have been painted silver.

Are there going back to there leasing company the 67's or transferring to another part of DB like Arriva trains wales
RE: Chiltern Railways - wirralbus - 28/03/2015 19:15
The 67's are owned by DB anyway so will be put to best advantage for the company , im sure they have plans afoot for them one way or another , its just that the Class 68's have better acceleration and power , good for getting over them Chilterns.

With 175 refurb soon, which ATW have announced in the next few months down the line, which is suprising how close to ending the franchise,

The current Wales & Borders franchise doesn't end until October 2018 CX04 - so there's still over three and a half years left to go yet. With the Class 175s now between 14 and 15 years old (as good as they are) it's probably the right time for them to have a refurbishment
