One of the faults I’m guessing stopped it from running yesterday night he struggled to get the Air line back on the 93 from the 37

Can I ask why the class 93 is taking so long passing trials?

Get the thing running, it's made to work, so let's see it doing some! If they're any good, put them to graft on strenuous work and see how they handle it.

I filmed 001 and 002 being dragged thru Chesterfield and since then they have both sat in Worksop yard for over 2 month 4 million quid each, 2 years behind schedule and sat gathering dust, and when 001 finally makes it to Crewe for tests up to Carlisle, i believe the diagrams were cancelled, someone might correct me on this, and as of yesterday, i passed 001 sat in Basford yard

It’s not the most successful of locos lol however it did complete its test run to Carlisle last week running light on its first run then under load with the mk3 coaching stock.

Good morning, hope you are well and thank you for the brilliant video.... Please excuse my ignorance, but what was the yellow locomotive and train at the very beginning of your video? Please don't laugh, but it looked similar to a class 66... Many thanks.

Firstly many thanks and believe it or not it’s the first time I’ve seen it running but that is a Rail grinding machine

So why does class 93 run under its own power?
@AlexRailwayphotographyandvideoАй бұрын
I know last week they had some issues which is why it didn’t run and far as i know it should be running by itself to Carlisle but it didn’t run last night
