It depends how you define regular and unusual. When I was spotting the Tyne Valley line was DMU operated, largely with Class 101's and sometimes Carlisle allocated 108's. The Carlisle - Hull service was double headed 31's, the early morning train from Carlisle to Leeds and late afternoon return was often D200 and a 47 otherwise. The Nottingham services had just been re-routed via the WCML. My memories are that when D200 wasn't working and after D200 moved on S&C services to Carlisle were a combination of 31's and 47's, with 47's the norm as new generation DMUs appeared to displace locomotive hauled trains. The fact that peaks appearing tended to cause a bit of excitement for local spotters and bashers indicates they weren't that common after Nottingham services went electric.

Nottingham services electric ?

Thats something that passed me by.

That looks like a recent spruce up for 47847 at that time.

It had black headcode panels, in 2007 when it was on the back of our train to Holyhead

And then they cant clean the windows?

Did anyone get a chance to ask the Bachmann guys when they are expecting the next batch of 47's? I've got 712 on preorder, I know the Bachmann website says Jul/Aug so I guess imminent.

Thats gunna cost ya.

I bet he had Yinging in his ears for hours, after that lot.

Needs just a little touch of T Cut.

Ho dear.

My 2 little fellas arrived the other day and look like they have been in a right scrap.

2 broken arms & a broken leg.

But at least the Deltic was 100%

Amazing.

Famously,  one even made a trip across the Woodhead route with a footex. 

And past Heaton Lodge Jct, on a fuel tank train.

Not so much a main line.

But i bet there is quite a few miles of the stuff, under this lot.

Healey Mills.

Im with you on this.

But lets not forget the pre tops blue ones,  with arrows under the cab sides.

Like this.
