Monday & Tuesdays Blog

Been a tad busy these past few days, restrictive internet access dosent help either!

Tuesday saw a first for the X9, 17697 - X707JVV, A Trident/President done the 1040 Cambridge - Wisbech and 1305 return, and 1540, but only as far as Chatteris, where 20857 was sent back to Long Sutton. Obviously, this would have left Cambridge a vehicle down for the 13 series of routes, which is X707s usual haunts.

Peterborough allocated 20848 - P848GND has been messing up things, due to having no transponder fitted, it cannot run through to Cambridge, so is having to be turned around at Chatteris.

An outline of Monday & Tuesdays happenings can be seen below.
