A Stock formation reports

Couple of changes: 5050+5227 and 5072+5201. When I saw the latter yesterday, the train was being taken out of service with a defect with the saloon lighting on 5072.

Today (23/08)
5016+5185 476
5018+5217
5020+5221 both looking filthy on a peak Chesham service
5022+5107
5038+5187 425
5044+5057 445
5046+5183
5080+5177
5084+5189
5100+5063
5104+5145
5124+5193 452

Had a ride on 5000 on Saturday and 5153 today but forgot to note both of the units running with them.

Good idea!

On my travels from cricket this evening....

5098+5191
5177+5080
5189+5084
5038+5187
5018+5217
5193+5124
5068+5175
5113+5134 I think?

...and no S stock in sight. There were a shed load of class 66 and MLAs parked on the down fast line between Northwood and Harrow, back to back, it was like the M25!!!

Also, today, three trains were stabled in the sidings at Watford. They were:

5104+5145
5100+5063
5127+5146

Is it likely that 5064 and 5092 will now be coupled at Rickmansworth?

Just a glut of formations that Ive travelled on since June, any help with gaps would be appreciated:-

07/09: Change 5052+5145

Also some updates; 5000+5233 , 5126+5147 and also had a ride on 5078/9 but didn't note what it's running mate was.

Changes noted today: 5118+5221, 5074+5094 and 5134+5183. These changes may mean that either 5161 or 5215 could be the other unit forming T717 on Monday? Would be surprised if it was 5161 given the repairs it would have received after its derailment earlier this year.

I saw an A-stock train at Great Portland Street eastbound last week with white lights fitted to a trailer bogie, lighting the rails. Perhaps it had cameras or other recording equipment too that I couldn't see.

Is this the RAT unit? Shame I didn't note down any car numbers, but I didn't really notice how special it was unit after it had departed, when I realised it hadn't opened its doors.
