Whilst out to photo the Belmond Pullman hauled by Clan Line between Reigate and Redhill, the class 67 on the rear wasn't one of their Pullman liveried skips. Was surprised to see a Tfw one.

0Z54 Crewe Electric to Toton Maintenance today at 1024 today through Tutbury & Hatton.

Camera time fast!

0Z54 Crewe to Toton through Tutbury & Hatton 1018 this morning.

 

67016 (a regular on this trip) leading 66198 & 67013.

67006 'Royal Sovereign' approaching Deighton on 29th May 2022 with 5Z67 from Belmont Down Yard to Huddersfield.

 

 

This was the empty stock to form 1Z68, Huddersfield to Wembley Central, supporters special in connection with Huddersfield Town's appearance in the Championship play-off final.

 

I bet that really was a journey of two halves - 1Z68 full of hope and optimism; the return 1Z70 full of disappointment.

Crewe to Toton 1055 this morning. 67006 Royal Sovereign dragging 90039 The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport.

 

 

Started off from Crewe Electric with 67010 attached as well but only made it as far as Platform 5 before returning and detaching 67010 which was needed elsewhere so was running 27 late when it passed through Hatton.

After taking HM and other Royals from Windsor to Edinburgh overnight, I managed to see 67007 T&T 67006 work the ECS of the Royal Train back to base at Wolverton as 1Z60, through Grendon near Atherstone.

 

Thanks,

Jack.

Yesterday, I saw the Belmond British Pullman. It was topped and tailed with Belmond British Pullman's Class 67 67024 and the Royal train's Class 67 67005 Queen's Messenger. These two were my first Class 67s I've seen.

Royal Skip, 67005 'Queen's Messenger', was out to play on the annual Pullman service for 'Glorious Goodwood', the 1Z80 09:39 Victoria - Chichester. Pullman liveried 67024 brought up the rear on a beautiful late July morning. Sadly the sun was not quite in the right place for a really good photo, with the ends of the locos in the shade. Here they both are just south of Pulborough - 29th July 2022.

I went out to Ifield station Crawley to get pic of the above train aging the sun not in a great place

Not very often I say ‘oh dear’ but that looks awful, the red and black just don’t go together

 

maybe once it weathers down a bit it might look better

I've just seen a more side on picture of it on WNXX and it really is awful. Absolutely no thought seems to have gone into it. Presumably that large slab of black is to match the ex Grand Central Mk4s so that they don't need to repaint the coaches.

Is that a way of blaming the livery on under-funding from TfWales?

Not my photo but seen on Facebook today. 67027 has broken colour cheers Craig
