Train clarification required (Holyhead)?
Today - thursday 26th June - at approx 20.30, i saw a train heading towards Abergele comprised of a class 66 ( i think) 4 coaches in Arriva blue, and a dead electric loco at the rear. What train was this. The Irish Mail with the dead loco and portion split at Crewe? Or some other.

The train you saw would be the Cardiff - Holyhead service [sponsored by the Welsh Agency and often referred to as the WAG Express] which consists of a Class 67 locomotive (usually one from 67001 / 02 / 03) hauling 4 coaches and a Driving Van Trailer. The latter vehicle is a specially configured vehicle with driving controls that allows it to lead a train and take power from the locomotive which will then be at the rear of the consist.

Probably the class 67 which runs a train between Cardiff and Holyhead with a driving van trailer on the back.

As Alex says above. Arriva Trains Wales has also recently leased a second set of carriages and locomotives
