Worth mentioning, B12B FJ06GHB took the lead for 'Rarest Independent Working of the Year' yesterday by covering the 1200 87A after Vario DE04XEZ developed a fault. It was replaced by B10M R895XVM. Photo @ John Atkin

Confirmation from John Atkin is that the normal 76/87 vehicle - Vario DE04XEZ - is off for MOT this week, therefore the Trident will be on the working for the whole week.

What normally does 271

Usually Vario KF52UAE is allocated to the 271 although B10M R952XVM was operating it one day last week.
