Why can't they put appropriate rolling stock on the Fishguard boat train all year round, why only weekdays in the summer timetable (surely if they can provide a 158 on summer weekdays then they should be able to source one all the time, unless one fails)?

On Friday at Shrewsbury a terminiating train was announced as coming from Llandrindod, is there a short-working in the timetable or was the HOWL closed at some intermediate point?

The Reason for the Llandrindod train is because, the 14:04 from Shrewsbury to Swansea was terminated back from Llandrindod, because the 13:14 Swansea to Shrewsbury was 67 minutes due to signalling problems near Swansea to Llaneli, so the 13:14 of Swansea was terminated at Llanwyrtd to keep the trains at 18:05 from Shrewsbury and 18:21 from Swansea on time.

They should use the 150 from the 09:14 on the 17:10. Would be better than the 153. Unless heart of wales every morning is 150.

Thanks, I may take a trip on the Conwy Valley line.

So as soon as 175002 is back they are another 175 down. Ive not noticed many 158s covering Manchesters in the last few weeks tho, have all of them apart from the booked Saturday 158 diagram been 175s? 

Yesterday
14:55 Swansea to Manchester was 158819 last silver 158(my friend said)
17:55 Swansea to Manchester was 158833

175005 might now be away for a while, it was on 15:21 Cardiff Central to Holyhead on Friday 10th August with 175009 leading.
175005 has a hole in the drivers cab

Was 150 last Winter also

Maybe because they had a 153 away because it hit a tree.

I am sorry to hear about this and all involved.

Was just wondering does anyone know the power cars on the set involved in the Ufton incident and Bristol Incident.
