Bedford Phil’s moves Jan – Jun 1982

Thanks to “TC” for the compilation and research and to “Driver Phil” for his classic moves. Any help with some of the queries very welcome

Saturday 16th January 1982

45135                                    08.13 St. Pancras – Derby                                                 Bedford – Derby                                                  78.75

47121                                    08.35 Taunton – Newcastle                                               Derby – Sheffield                                                36.5

31411                                    10.08 Newcastle – Cardiff                                                 Sheffield – Derby (At least 40 late)                  36.5

45107                                    14.57 Derby – Bedford 17.31                                           Derby – Bedford                                                  78.75

Notes:

Times for 45107 taken from Phil’s file, but they don’t match anything from “Table 53”. Maybe the service was retimed due to the snow. Nearest alternative is the 14.10 Sheffield – St. Pancras which was booked Derby 14.56, Leicester 15.23/15.24, St. Pancras 16.58.

Notes:   

33016 on 13.10 Portsmouth Harbour – Bristol TM failed at Milepost 115.75, 47125 (presumably from Westbury) assisted forward.

In theory the stock would have returned with the 16.14 Bristol TM – Portsmouth & Southsea, and this is known to have been 37205 from Westbury, and must have been between 35 and 60 late to fit in with Phil’s other moves.

I suspect 47125 was terminated at Westbury, with 37205 starting the return service there.
