CovDriver

Sounds fun.

job in the midlands for me then 2 x 60 doncaster to toton, downside is i dont get home til saturday evening

All sounds like a load of Cobblers to me Cov Guard!

If you get a driving turn to Donny you might be able to arrange a Hanger visit!

Well done

Congratulations! Not a 153 purchance? :-)

I'm with a link 2 driver so no 153's for two weeks at least instead I'll have the joys of 323's and 350's ??

Great to hear 08805 is still going, she spent some time at Bescot in the late 80s in this livery

Don't lean on any tracker balls !

Oops to late ?? give me a manual box anyday but its an interesting experience

Your right there Jim bang on. we went up there about 10am was hoping to see something freight wise but also trying to keep the enthusiast bit a secret if you know what I mean!!

they are all cranks in that box anyway!

It was the other 7 trainees and 2 instructors I was hiding from lol

That explains it...

Well done! Just shows how much LM have relied on people doing overtime just to cover the basic roster.

So true a few depots have had enough now cant really say much more publically but you've hit the nail on the head there Rugd1022

Funniest thing I ever saw at Nuneaton was announcement to say Crewe-Euston service cancelled so passengers ran from Platform 5 over the bridge to waiting Class 153 on Platform 2 as advised to get Cov-Euston service. Well talk about karmasutra! People pressed up against the windows. Soon to be followed by announcement that Euston train was arriving on Platform 5 shortly. Mass exodus from 153 back to Platform 5!:-o

bet your gutted not to be on that service again! all the best with the training

I will miss that route especially seeing the colas 70's I had three past me this morning with a rake of empty flats. Cheers Jim

Me too.

I'll be cancelling before the third magazine like I dud last time when will they learn !!

i'll have to cancel my subscription then

same here, wife and kids away, day off, shed time!

real bad planning there, so just remember how you badly planned it so it can be done more often lol

Yorkie great minds think alike ?? and jim its garage time for me in about 2hrs ??

Welcome to Ireland Cov Guard.

Cheers Irishmail a fantastic country the place is so welcoming and friendly

Grab your mojo with both hands and have a great day !

'bout the only thing that gets firm once you turn 40

Happy birthday

15:07 Just flown over my house at 200' just south of Kings Lynn heading NW. Marvellous sight!!

Spotted it by chance as I was driving up the A46 earlier. Not a plane buff at all so totally by accident. Was definitely a cool site tho

So what will you change your username to?

It'll have to be Cov driver as I'm gonna be a train driver

With that career move, it's a back to front life!

oops

You make it sound as if you've tied them up as they sleep as part of your wire run...!!

wait til the first button is pressed and the CDU wakes them up

To good to be true they both woke up as point number 4 was about to be wired up

Had a very similar experience recently with my daughter and tonsillitis. I'm not supposed to linger in the attic unless I'm alone in the house (so I spend lots of time staring at t'internet in the dining room instead)

Not nice, especially for her. Hope she is soon better once more (and you, your points and feeds are eventually happy too).

Currently start/stop at Euston .. (according to the gen lists)

According to a driver friend at Euston, theres been a fair bit of shunting about and it not working, oh dear! 57310 apparently working very well!
