RMweb Gold 4630 Posted January 9 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 9 (edited) GBRf 69008 passing through Deighton on 9th January 2024 with 0Z08, Doncaster Down Decoy to Crewe Basford Hall. I'm presuming that this is part of a driver training/route refreshing trip as the 69 should later today, if they all run, be working; 0Z09 Crewe Basford Hall to Huddersfield 0Z10 Huddersfield to Crewe Basford Hall 0Z11 Crewe Basford Hall to Doncaster Down Decoy The four workings are currently in the schedule also for Wednesday 10th and Thursday 11th.

Peter Kazmierczak Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Surely they must have a can of off-white to paint the driver's cab windscreen surround. It's been like that for ages now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been like that for ages now. It certainly gives it a unique look - almost like a black eye. I wonder if Bachmann will reproduce this oddity in their forthcoming model?

It's been like that for ages now. It just completes the 'retro' look, by wearing a monocle..... It's on a route-learning trip, so needs to keep an eye on where it's going !
