    I believe 99311 (RMB) only worked on Monday's leg of the trip, before being towed by D1015 and the 47760 to Penzance and back and then back to Carnforth, where it was dumped. The remainder of the train is load 10 minus support coaches.

    I heard Network Rail decreed the train was overloaded, so the buffet car was removed.
