:80609 should be 80969 (typos, my specialism!). AIUI there are a number of other considerations. The Guard/brake van has to be near the middle to be on platform at shorter stations while the buffet tends to be near the middle, presumably for expediency. Obbos would naturally tend to go on the end. The lists you copied were from the Autumn Steam Gala where presumably the requirement is maximum possible passenger numbers hence 8 regular carriages in each set. However sets may be shorter at other times, for example the AN1 set in March may only need 6 + an obbo for cream teas or whatever. It will be interesting to see what is in use for the Spring Gala, and whether it changes again afterwards.
::For what it's worth the sets in use yesterday were: N(7) on AN1, C(7)+80969 on AN1 AS1 and DMU(4) on AS2. --[[User:WillSalt|WillSalt]] ([[User talk:WillSalt|talk]]) 16:31, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
