I understand that 08752 is booked into Canton Depot for a brake block change tomorrow morning.

What a disgrace that EWS don't have their own facility in south wales.  Sad

They've not been sighted for a while, so 08466 must've been taken inside. 08951, on the other hand, has been inside for about a month now.

I think we could with an update on these two, please Craig  Wink

466 may be a main generator fault with engine out and 951 is a wheelset change. It's lucky Margam Depot knifed and forked their power unit changes on 08752!!!

Brian / FRED,

Did the brake block change happen today as one of the fitters allocated to the job didn't go to Canton Depot. If it did, did the two Tidal fitters do the block change?
