:Seeing that 50031 Consortium Limited only came into existence as a new company this year, I assume it subsequently acquired 50031 from Class Fifty Operations Limited.  Browsing around Companies House, I think the role of the Operations company was (is?) to hire the Class 50s from the Alliance and provide them to various TOCs under spot hire arrangements. If so a) is that an ongoing activity and b) is it worth mentioning on the Support Organisations page? Is anyone in contact with Jon Dunster who could presumably clarify? --[[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 17:38, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
