2024 New Haulages

[Peter Mugridge]

Time to get the new thread ready so that it is ex-works on Monday in anticipation of people collecting many new haulages in the new year. Will anyone other staff be adding 701s to it this time? We will see!! Failing that, there should at least be the final two 710s and a couple of dozen 720s plus many 730s and 777s to ride for the first time. Apart from the 196s and 197s...

6th Jan:
196012 (Wolverhampton - Birmingham New Street) [always nice to get a winning unit on a semi-required move following a walk]

West Midland Metro Tram 49 (Dudley Street - Bull Street)
West Midland Metro Tram 50 (Lodge Road - Winson Green)

2 more of the newer trams left to hunt down, assuming they have entered service (52 & 55) plus one needed for a mile (33, assuming it's in use and isn't stored). Doing the trams on the old railway route is more fun than crawling in the city centre.

Right place, right time I will probably need to wait until they enter more use as I need to keep an watchful eye on my remaining annual leave

98th and 99th 450s scored, and the bonus late-night 444 on the Woking via Hounslow service. Sadly, the 701 had disappeared back on shed at Wimbledon by the time I became aware of it's working...

Did you mean to use the new sightings thread...? Or are you a driver doing the test trains? ( genuine question )

First trip out on a 701, then after some visits in central London, over to Euston for the afternoon 730s. I hadn't realised that there was a third service now, so got a bonus on the return from Leighton Buzzard.
A bit of time waiting at Euston bagged a couple of the newer Overground 710s.
