142 042 was the unit that 'lost an engine' at Broad Green yes, in the latest Pravda magazine from Northern it mentions that it has returned to service on one page, then later in the same magazine is says it will return to service shortly... :roll:

According to GEMINI 142042 has not yet re entered service since the Broad Green incident

I find it hard to see how TRUST can tell you whether or not it is back in service as TRUST is a live real time train running programme. I think GEMINI is the system you are thinking of.

One coach of 142042 is parked up in the works yard opposite P7 at Doncaster sandwiched between a Mk3 and a flat wagon. Visible behind it was a 507/8, and a 166.

So it looks like it's still at Donny works.

Half of it sat outside Wabtec yesterday.

Have they taken the opportunity to do an interior refresh whilst it has been out of action for so long? Or is it just confined to the derailment damage?
