...and not so many minutes later at Waterloo. u2407 (with u2417) is in platform 8 intending to be the 12.05 service to Poole whilst u2411 (with u2405) is in platform 9 intending to be the 11.35 service to Weymouth - u2405 detaching at Bournemouth. However, those circulating on platform 9 before departure could not help but notice the fitter under the MBLS of 2411 attending to a bearing on the London end motor bogie. The unit was then failed and u2407 with u2417 being substituted as the 11.35 departure resulting passengers and enthusiasts rushing to platform 8 shortly before departure. |
