MK3 SLEEPER Stock with SMASHED Windows - CHOPPERS Fail at Crewe 5th Feb-26
The Choppers were declared a failure at Crewe and subsequently replaced by 47810 - A lack of available time today means this is a short video and I had to leave before the locos were swapped over and 47810 left northbound. (apologies about this - Some footage is better than non at all I guess)

A video captures the arrival of a pair of LSL trains, 20096/20107, at Crewe with a set of ex Caledonian Sleeper Mk3 coaches. These coaches have recently been stored at Kidderminster and show signs of damaged windows. The Choppers locomotives were declared unfit for service at Crewe and replaced by 47810. The footage includes the movement of these trains and related locomotives, including 67005, 86101, and 89001, though the video ends before the full changeover is completed.
