Title: Donkeys on tour Post by: 6 OF 2 redundant adjunct of unimatrix 01 on September 19, 2011, 21:22:08 The thread 'Re: Stock cascade of class 150s' seems to be drifting slightly which gave me an idea to start a new one on pacers on unusual routes...
i don't have more details but apparently a 142 has been to yeovil junction (and has the record time for exeter-yeovil) any more details (or even photos would be great) maybee we can add more pacer sightings here rather than on threads about class 150's ;D Title: Re: Donkeys on tour Post by: thetrout on September 19, 2011, 22:58:15 Bit like that 153 that didn't go to Portsmouth*...! *cough* :o ::) ;D
* = Disclaimer: FGW will deny all knowledge of said 153 making it to Portsmouth... But it did AFAIK Title: Re: Donkeys on tour Post by: 6 OF 2 redundant adjunct of unimatrix 01 on September 19, 2011, 23:13:18 is this like the class 87 at exeter... and yes it did
Title: Re: Donkeys on tour Post by: thetrout on September 19, 2011, 23:24:58 I bet that poor 87 felt a bit homesick... No OHLE for a good 160 miles :o :(
Still impressive though ;D Title: Re: Donkeys on tour Post by: gaf71 on September 20, 2011, 01:36:10 With all due respect, as someone who drives one most days, the less I see, or read about them, the better. Ta!
