Raskelf
DRS 68033 leads a Transpennine Express Nova 3 push-pull coaching set on the 11.43 Milford Loop - Saltburn ECS working on 17 June 2021. This working nearly caught me out, only noting its rapid approach after hearing the roar of the loco engine, as these sets normally work no further north than York. Since taking this view TPE have indicated that they are considering using them on some workings through Middlesbrough, to Saltburn if they gain approval to extend beyond Redcar Central, due to loco noise complaints in Scarborough during overnight stabling. I believe they have also had noise complaints at Redcar from the class 185 DMU, for the first morning departure, standing idling for a long time after arrival from Siemens depot at York; and have had to delay its arrival.
