I'm gonna have to spend the day shuttling between Leeds and Interchange tomorrow to try and find it and be sure :oops: :lol:

The diagram should have ended at NL but the way things have been today stuff could be and probably is anywhere.

142019 still has its destination painted over, was at Leeds as well.


Both 155/153 combos on Calder Valleys yesterday ended the day somewhere in Yorkshire, IIRC one was the 19.18 off Vic and IIRC the other was the 21.19 off Vic.

3 coach 158 out and about today the 158 with the orange destination indicator at one end. Heard that a driver/conductor don't know which one refused to take it this morning because he hadnt been trained on it, so they had to get someone that previously worked 3 cars in Arriva TP days

Think there's some MCBs and isolation cocks on the middle car that are a bit different - I know it's nitpicking but I know our lads are going to be trained up before they take them. Ultimately, the centre car is a different type / sub-class of vehicle, so if it's not on your card and you've never even seen one you don't take it!

iirc the only difference for the conductor is the mcb cupboard and its location. nothing else afects them except the extra work load.

No way! It's pleasing all over blue has gone, wished they'd left it until the last :(

143 has been done a little while now, still looking fairly shiny though (probably won't be after all this bad weather...)
