    I appreciate that this is not quite a preservation topic, but didn't feel like joining another forum just to find out this little piece of info. What Chiltern services, if any, are DVT/Mk3/67 on a Saturday (this coming one, to be precise),

    1830 to Moor Street is not a cl.67, but fast cl.168 service. There is also an 1807 London Marylebone to Kidderminster cl. 67 hauled train. Hope this helps. Sets not often used at the weekend, but sometimes called in if there is a wembley event.

    Some of these times don't seem to agree with the Chiltern timetable. A couple of examples being the xx.20 services from London are shown as xx.37, the 16:30 is shown as 16:50.

    IIRC the 67 hauled trains are designated Silver trains in the Chiltern timetable and are indicated by an S at the top of the relevant column.
