LE Movements, ECS and Test Runs 2016

Has Braunton left Gloucester? Can't say I can see any movement on either RTT or open time trains?

 

At 2105 Rtt did update to say she was in Gloucester p4 rt but hasn't moved since and nobody has heard it yet . Unless the times aren't updating

 

Still in Gloucester.

 

Better luck next time i suppose

 

On time according to Open Train Times.

 

34046 about to leave about 1h 40 minutes late.

 

34046 just passed stroud, me and my girlfriend were the only ones there. Quite a clanking noise as she passed by. Video tomorrow as it's late

 

46233 approaching Tile Hill in Coventry today.

Timings for Thursday were 6hours 20minutes to Bristol. Today is 4hours 40 minutes so that's a winner!

 

Lord Dowding last night

 

Duchess 15 early arriving at Taunton; Tornado RT at Reading, now at BTM 20 early, 1540.

 

They sound like 'heavy' flats; must have been unpleasant on the footplate.

 

Not surprised they failed her on her last trip. That sounds pretty bad. Surely working her back to London like that won't do her a lot of good? The motion is going to take a bit of a pounding from the vibration.

Been a slow journey if it had been on a wheel skate! Guess options were limited?

They didn't sound that bad to me, and if they had been there is no way that would have been propelled at that speed.
