The Class 33's were the dominant motive power type on
services over the Cardiff - Bristol TM - Portsmouth route between May 1980
and May 1988. On this page are a selection of known
Class 33 workings during that period. Other locomotive types also
worked over this
route, especially between Cardiff and Bristol TM during
this period. Visit the Diary pages for details
of those turns where known.
More Crompton gen or other rateable workings from this
route always welcome.
Due to a shortage of time, these pages have not received
regular updates in recent months and Crompton workings have been added
to
the Diary pages . To make
this site easier to maintain, and allow for more frequent updates, Crompton
workings will be rearranged, as time
allows, into date order with links to new pages added
here until this process is completed.
Please note workings from 1982 , 1983 & 1984 are now on seperate pages.
