  7. Hi, I am now working upon part 10 of the ON SHED series and it will look at depots in the Privatisation Era. To that end I am looking for publishable pics of the following list of depots. Please PM me if you're interested in helping. The pics need of course to be taken from public spaces, or with permission and most definitely not in trespassing positions nor any position of danger or likely to considered as such. This is the good list, but others not on such as those closed post privatisation are also required please.

  8. Hi, it seems that the RCTS have a great list of the current depots in use on "BR", are there any however that are missing and especially ones post privatisation but have now closed? http://rcts.org.uk/reference/tops-depot-codes
  9. I'm sure I know the one you mean, I remember it being a dark cover with I think an HST on the cover of it....
  10. Hi, I'd read that Darlington Works had its right angled roads inside the Works converted to straight roads for diesel repairs? where those of the main works actually converted or was this reference actually to another part of the works? Only the access to the main part of the works, the "Erecting Shop" was to a road which lead to a turntable inside the building from which locos were lifted from a road and placed further down the Works on a free Road?
  11. Good evening, would anyone happen to know please the number ranges of the Class 08s, 45s and 47s built by Crewe works please? were they? Class 08, ????????? Class 45s, D50-137 Class 47s, D1100-11, 1550-681, 842-61, 962-999
  12. Hi had 40062 received a rebuilt end at some point? Looks an odd headcode box?
  13. It most definitely will not being doing that. the joining and running of a train with stock from two different TOCS...... the Norwich to Nottingham service is down to be extended to Derby and there will no longer be a through service from Norwich to Sheffield, Manchester or Liverpool (As a total aside, it made me laugh a while back when someone in the Rovers, (Coronation Street - and no I don't watch it, just happened to catch it), said, "I've got to get from Manchester to Nottingham! how on earth am I going to do that?!!!" - Well, erm it's easy! just catch the straight through train!
  14. You cant get much more express than stopping at Manchester and Stockport only...... (the occasional peak time services also call at chinley and Dore and for some bizarre reason the last one of the day stops at al stations.
  15. A new service? It's been running from Liverpool to Nottingham/Norwich, via Sheffield for over 25 years...
  16. Hi, the net only seems to throw up stories RE the Class 68s on the Liverpool to Nottingham service from six months to a year or more ago.... would anyone happen to know the latest development on whether they will be used or not on the service?
  17. Would anyone happen to have a break down of an example CEM overhaul? was the fundamental difference between a CEM overhaul (as per the name Component Exchange Maintenance (CEM) that a loco was stripped and refitted with pre-refurbished parts, and thus back in traffic a lot quicker rather than stripping a loco and sending its parts off for repair and then re-fitment later in the overhaul process?
  18. Hi, would anyone happen to know please the number range of the Class 03sand Class 52s built at Swindon please?
  19. hi, The final loco to receive attention at Derby was Horwich Works built 08856 which apparently was fitted with a cast plate on the cabside to mark this fact? Would anyone happen to have a picture of this plaque or the loco so adorned? A happy new year,
  20. Perhaps hither green is three times the length of ryde and there wasn’t enough room?
  21. when did DRS re-open it? any idea how long they were there for?
  22. The book has had many positive reviews and is selling well to the point of possibly selling out,
