Friday 24th September 2010 ~ Good Friday ?

Des photographed 37579 off the beaten track again, this time at Carlton Colville.

We haven't mentioned punctuality for a while and that is probably because this week it has been very good. Today was exceptional for a Friday it would appear with typical afternoon delays being limited to just a couple of minutes.
Des says 20107 was used on the first bit of Y13 from Yarmouth to Lowestoft, but it then required a safety service, so 34108 was used on the remainder of the turn. It was the exception to todays good timing being 14 late from Wisbech on the 13.56 to Lowestoft. Des continues "37579 was just used on an AM X1 short and the afternoon 6B/881/X1 routine". Seems an odd state of affairs that Lowestoft were down to using 34108 while a B9 was spare at Yarmouth ! 20126 meanwhile worked K14. This is a fairly short diagram which starts as the 05.37 Lynn to Lowestoft before doing the 08.55 Lowestoft to Peterborough and 13.35 return. 37566 was the only spare B9 at Lowestoft, but this was being serviced, so 126 worked the whole turn.
37570 was once again swapped this evening, being taken off K4 at Lynn and being replaced by 37578.
