1D11 0711 Crewe - Chester
1H82 0738 Chester - Man Picc
1D34 0950 Man Picc - Holyhead
1H89 1301 Holyhead - Man Picca
1D31 1650 Man Picc - Llandudno
1K96 1934 Llandudno - Crewe

I finally got round to having a ride on a loco hauled set today. I had intended doing this the first week of the new timetable, but confusion between myself, my wife and the alarm clock thwarted the previous attempt.

I travelled out from Chester on 1D34 to Holyhead and back on 1H89, which were formed of 67001, DVT 82308 and three coaches. The train was immaculate inside and out. A very pleasant change from the usual DMUs.
