'The Sulzer Rose' Saturday 29th September 1990 The continuing saga of 33207 Hereford, Pembroke Dock, Carlisle, Penzance, Holyhead…… All places graced with the appearance of 33207 during the last five years. On Saturday 29th September Sheffield became the latest place 'off the beaten tracks to witness this well - travelled 'Slim Jim'. Organised by the BRC&W Type Three Preservation Group, 'The Sulzer Rose' would take two Construction 33's from Eastleigh to Sheffield as part of the Tinsley Open Day celebrations, At 0815, the tour departed with 33042 and 33207 at the head of TC . The combination of high fares, rain and the day being the last Saturday of the Summer timetable resulted in a number of empty seats. Picking up at Winchester, Basingstoke and Woking, the tour turned left and headed for Staines. Soon the Cromptons were 'off region' and reliving days past, up the Midland main line. Luton, Bedford, Kettering and Wellingborough were passed before the coalfields of Leicestershire came into view. A crew change at Leicester and the pair of Cromptons headed past Vic Berry's Yard, now the resting place of 33005, 044, 045, 062, 105, and 210 and up the Erewash Valley. It was strange seeing the Cromptons winding past power stations and pits, overtaking and passing numerous Class 20's and 58's. North of Chesterfield, the tour took the Staveley line, passing a rundown Barrow Hill and the Departmental depot at Beighton before an on-time arrival at Sheffield Midland to be greeted by hundreds of photographers. Who said no one knew about 33's north of Birminghan! The locomotives and the train were stabled in the centre road and then somewhat surprisingly shut down. They were supposed to run light engines to Tinsley, to go on display, but due to so many people wanting to go to the open day, the ridiculous hourly two-car DMU shuttle to the open day had to be increased, and the pilotman allocated to take the 33's up to the depot had to work the relief shuttle, so the 33's were therefore stranded.  Paul Waring pictured the pair sat on the middle road at Sheffield Midland. See more of Paul's photos at his website, "sulzer12lda28b.fotopic.net" [opens in separate window]. He has a section for Cromptons - scroll down near the bottom of the home page. Most of the train went off by rail or bus to visit a very wet open day; the 3 hours we were given was not adequate due to the problems actually getting to the site.. A quick sprint round revealed examples of most motive power past and present. Tense moments for many as the sheer volume of people meant a long wait for the shuttle back to the station and a tight connection for the return leg of the railtour. At 16.30 the 33's departed, witnessed again by hundreds of enthusiasts heading south to Derby then to Leicester and returning as outward. A successful day, and a further increasingly rare chance to travel with the 33's off region. Importantly, more money was raised both from the tour and the sales stands and preservation funds increased. As for 33207, Scotland surely must he next! D. Robinson. |

The Winter timetable change has brought a restructuring of the Class 33 diagrams with some new duties and the loss of others. The six Class 60's planned for Channel Tunnel and Aggregate traffic (see Summer Review) have been sent to other regions and will now not arrive on the Southern until sometime in 1991. However with the arrival of the Class 59/1 for Whatley Quarry traffic and 60 diagrams on other regions many Class 56's have been displaced. Eight 56's have arrived on the Southern, working from Hither Green on some of the 33 construction sector diagrams. By mid-November, workings of Class 56's on these duties was somewhat erratic with 2 to 3 diagrams a day worked by Toton 56'S. The following trains are most frequently Class 56 hauled: 1) 7Y94 0940 Purley Aggregate sdgs - Cliffe 1515 TTHFO Then light engine to Theale 6O60 1748 Theale - Northfleet 2115 SX 2) 7U40 0912 Angerstein Wharf - Battersea Yard SX OR 7V78 0912 Angerstein Wharf - Park Royal SX 7U41 1503 Battersea Yard - Angerstein Wharf SX OR 7O78 1420 Park Royal - Angerstein Wharf SX 3) 6C43 0800 Grain - Sevington SX 6C82 1359 Sevington - Grain SX OR 6C53 0441 Cliffe - Sevington SX 6C66 1059 Sevington - Cliffe SX These workings are partly covering for reduced FASB 33 availability and have allowed the transfer of FASB 33's (33009,019,027,047) to Departmental sector with more to follow. It has also provided capacity for a Construction sector locomotive to work a new diagram. This new diagram involves 18 trips between Chatham Dockyard and Hoo Junction, removing contaminated asbestos spoil from the Dockyard which is being cleared by property developers Shank and MacEwan for housing construction. By diagram, a Class 56 brings the train of empty spoil wagons from Forders sidings (Bedfordshire) to Hoo Junction; here the 33's splits the train into three and trips them one at a time to Chatham to collect the spoil. When the three sets are filled the Class 56 takes the load back to Bedfordshire. This procedure happens with 3 trains from Forders sidings during 24 hours. The 33 diagrams being as follows (Saturday times in brackets).The contract is likely to last l8 months to two years. 6D83 0003 Hoo Jcn - Chatham 0045 MX 6D74 0120 Chatham - Hoo Jcn 0204 MX 6D85 0230(0133) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 0312(0215) MSX 6D82 0340(0245) Chatham - Hoo Jcn 0424(0329) SX 6D87 0440(0302) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 0522(0344) SX 6D86 0547(0414) Chatham Hoo Jcn 0633(0458) SX 6D89 0725(0627) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 0813(0714) SX 6D88 0845(0740) Chatham Hoo Jcn 0930(0824) SX 6D91 0948(0843) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 1043(0928) SX 6D90 1115(0958) Chatham - Hoo Jcn 1201(1052) SX 6D93 1230(1112) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 1313(1154) SX 6D92 1345(1223) Chatham - Hoo Jcn 1432(1324) SX 6D95 1253(1343) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 1445(1428) SX 6D94 1515(1458) Chatham - Hoo Jcn 1722(1552) SX 6D97 2000(1612) Hoo Jcn - Chatham 2043(1654) SX 6D96 2120(1723) Chatham - Hoo Jcn 2208(1824) SX 6D99 2230 Hoo Jcn - Chatham 2318 SX Class 56 duty 6O75 0220 Forders Sdgs - Hoo Jcn 0606 M-S 6M66 0630 Hoo Jcn - Forders Sdgs SO 6M66 1204 Hoo Jcn - Forders Sdgs SX 6O77 0808 Forders Sdgs - Hoo Jcn 1243 SX 6M67 2001 Hoo Jcn - Forders Sdgs SX 6088 2005 Forders Sdgs - Hoo Jcn 2310 SX These trains run up to Gillingham(Kent) and then run round continuing to Hoo Jcn/Chatham. Although booked for a single FASB 33, Departmental 33's have been noted and recently the Class 56 which brings the train down from Forders sidings has done all the trip work. Also on the freight front, two diagrams booked to run as required involve 33's from the FASB sector: 6Z00 1243 Grain - Sevington 1606 SX 6Z00 1916 Sevington - Grain 2249 SX This is booked for two x 33's. 6Z84 1152 Shakespeare Cliff - Grain 1413 SX This is booked for a single 33. ALL Saturday and Sunday only Grain - Shakespeare Cliff workings are now reduced to run as required. It is also possible that in the coming months two displaced Class 56's will be based at Brighton to in turn displace the Class 73 on the Lavant - Drayton and the FASB 33 on the Tolworth/Crawley - Newhaven Aggregates. On the Departmental front, one development with the Summer timetable was the RCE Civil Link duty taking a 33 from Ashford/Tonbridge to Leyton (ER). From October this now runs to Willesden on the LMR as follows: 7M07 0957 Tonbridge - Willesden Brent SX OR 7M06 0905 Ashford - Willesden Brent SX THEN 7O81 1332 Willesden Brent - Tonbridge/Ashford Arr. 1540 SX A further working which runs as required involves a locomotive from the DMSA pool (33101,109, 116) & runs from Horsham to Taunton to collect cable troughs as follows: 7Z20 1110 Horsham - Taunton 1633 SX 7Z21 1800 Taunton - Chichester (or Ashford or Horsham) 2240 SX This runs via Salisbury and runs round at Westbury before continuing down the West Country main line to Taunton. Also, it's worth noting that the Westbury shunting pool (DCWA) 33111,113, 117 can still be seen performing a wide variety of duties in the area; this is due to end early in 1991. Finally, back in Kent, the Thursdays only VSOE, shunting by a Dover 33/2, from Folkestone to Folkestone Harbour has been discontinued for the winter months. Restarts on the 3rd Thursday of February 1991. D. Robinson. |

Winter is here and Christmas is on our doorsteps, but for 'Crompton Enthusiasts' who enjoy riding behind and seeing Cromptons on passenger services, Christmas came over a month early. A severe shortage of serviceable Network Class 50's and DEMU's in November led to a field day for Crompton fans as they were drafted in to cover for many trains each day. Things started to look good in the last 2 days of October when 33109 and a TC set was used in place of a DEMU on the Reading to Basingstoke shuttle. Moving into November, Cromptons started to make occasional appearances on the Waterloo - Salisbury service. On Guy Fawkes Day (5th Nov) 33101 went to Salisbury and back on the 1215 from Waterloo, returning on the 1513 from Salisbury. On 7 November 33108 in the 'Dutch' livery appeared with a TC on the 1840 Waterloo - Salisbury service. 8th November saw repainted 33116, in all - over grey, with a TC set on the Waterloo - Salisbury services all day. 116 started the day with the 0809 Salisbury - Waterloo returning with the 1015 ex -Waterloo then worked the 1312 Salisbury - Waterloo, and the 1640 Waterloo - Salisbury. The week commencing the 12 November saw yet more Crompton workings, due to the severe shortage of Class 50's. 2 basic diagrams on the Waterloo - Salisbury line were introduced which are as follows: 1) 0809 Salisbury - Waterloo 1015 Waterloo - Salisbury 1312 Salisbury - Waterloo 1640 Waterloo - Salisbury 2) 0915 Waterloo - Salisbury 1118 Salisbury - Waterloo 1515 Waterloo - Salisbury 1724 Salisbury - Waterloo For diagram one a Crompton and TC set was used and on diagram two was a Crompton and conventional loco-hauled stock (load six on up trains and load 9 on down trains) with the Crompton being replaced by a Class 50 at Salisbury for the journey to Exeter; this of course delayed trains by 10 minutes or so. The loco on diagram 2 did also work the 2040 Waterloo - Yeovil Jcn. a couple of times. Monday 12th saw 33109 on diagram 1 and 33101 on diagram two. To add to the excitement, the Class 50 on the 1115 Waterloo - Exeter train failed by Woking and was replaced by 33117 for the run through to Exeter St. Davids, arriving a couple of hours late. Tuesday 13th saw 33116 replace 33101 on diagram 2 and 33109 was off diagram 1. 33109 replaced a DEMU on the Salisbury - Southampton shuttle. Wednesday 14th saw 33116 and 33109 work the same trains as the previous day, with 33101 with a blue/grey TC set on the 1840 Waterloo - Salisbury. Thursday 15th 33109 and TC set on diagram one. 33101 and TC set on Southampton - Salisbury service. 33116 and 6 coaches on the 1840 Waterloo - Salisbury service. On Saturday 17th 33109 worked a morning train from Waterloo to Salisbury with a TC set; 109 failed on her return journey, the 1513 ex-Salisbury, just after departure from Salisbury. This time a DEMU to the rescue and worked the service through to Waterloo. 33101/109/116 have also been noted working the Claphan Jcn - Kensington Olympia shuttle with a TC set from time to time. With a revised timetable due out on 21st January 1991 for the Waterloo - Salisbury - Exeter line comes a basic cut in service to cut the need for Class 50's; the poor customer suffers again. Why don't British Rail put the Class 33/1's and TC's back on the Waterloo - Salisbury route, until the new DEMU stock is delivered in 1992? It just shows that BR need the 33's; they always come to the rescue, 24hours a day, 365 days in the year. |

This item is waiting for unscrabbling after scanning. I know I'll loose the will to live if I tackle it just yet. When there's that or observing the drying process of solvent-based coatings, I might revisit it and sort it out. But until then.... |
