This page is still a bit of a work-in-progress. Any additional types, information on classes, example loco numbers and relevant pictures would be appreciated. Plus proof reading of course! --Robin (talk) 16:03, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

2251 and Manor I've seen photos, plus Sellick has Class 116s. --Patrick Hearn (talk) 17:49, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
Thanks - I've added those. I reverted the last of your edits which I think (or hope!) was just formatting changes moving references after punctuation, which is correct practice on Wikipedia but causes problems on this Wiki due to a conflict with the 'Lingo' terminology add-on. There are some notes about it on my user page. --Robin (talk) 22:26, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
Yup. I went to undo them but they were already undone thanks!--Patrick Hearn (talk) 22:54, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
I'm assuming BRBritish Rail or British Railways DMUs on the Kidder-Bewdley specials don't count?--Patrick Hearn (talk) 22:54, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
The draft guidance I put in the introductory paragraph was "...used regularly on scheduled passenger and freight services" so I guess they probably don't count as not being that regular. The same would apply to things like incoming bank holiday specials in the 50s and 60s - somewhere in SVRSevern Valley Railway News is a Cam Camwell photo of an LMSLondon Midland & Scottish Railway Crab passing Foley Park with one which would certainly have been a good one for spotters at the time. Mind you I don't own the page - it's a Wiki so anyone can add whatever they want (within reason!). --Robin (talk) 23:29, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
