So that was 4647/4656 and also 1724 on the 1/5 diagrams while 1407 was on X66 along with a solo

There was at least one solo on the X26/7 as well.

4510 on Sapphire X3A!

I had 1794 on the 1 this afternoon and wasn't to bad, seemed quite nimble and accelerated reasonably well. It would have been on the 1445 1 from Darlington, so is quite probably on the 5 to Darlo now.

It was capacity I was worried about, thankfully it's a Pulsar.

The announcements are still too loud.

Capacity was ok for the 1, but it would be problematic at peak times.

1507 has been replaced by 2863 on 1/5 after 1507's rear end hit a bollard in Cockerton, creating a small hole.
