Noteworthy Workings November 2013

WV 2006 - 1
WA 4680 - 40

I don't know whether these are particularly unusual or not.

Very nice spot with 2006 on the 1 :)

4680 on the 40 is only slightly unusual. They are the main type if a trident isn't avaliable

One from yesterday was 4730 on PB7 (Not sure whether this is unusual or not) but i am aware its usually Gemini's

That's one of those borderline things, like a B7 appearing on the 126. Might be the last time a toothpaste Enviro appears on the 7 though :)

Not a bad spot, Enviro400s do appear on the 7, but not all the time (Its not too unusual but does not happen every day, a few times a week I usually see one on there, 4853 was on there yesterday). Geminis and ALX400s usually work the 7

4774 > 7 (not sure with this one)

Tbh they do appear now and again covering for the trident board (And the past 3 times now the 4th it has been 4774)

The 7 has been completely Trident the last few times I have seen it

[Trident 4609]

Matt, 4730 is in current NXWM livery (Modified shade of red) not toothpaste livery.

Thanks For the info Matt and John, Had a day off school yesterday so managed to wonder into PB territory. I was aware E400's on the 7 were not unheard of but wasn't sure how common it was :) Thanks again

[Trident 4609]

Well yes the 7 is usually tridents and B7RLE's but i have seen 4774 on the 7 3 times (This is the fourth time now at least).

WA seem to make use of the dd's so E400's do regually wonder off the Walsall-Birmingham routes and work the 40/1,70A,8/89,10/A,29 etc but still 4774 on the 7 as said is a good spot :)

[Trident 4609]

Well i was on the 997 (4770) at the time so it was somewhere between Birmingham and Perry Barr (A34)

[Trident 4609]

Yes thats where i saw it John :) (Saw an 8C aswell)
