Title: BLP211 Changes to 161?????
Post by: Skippy on November 14, 2010, 09:03:13 AM
Can anyone find a reason to the following:

1930660   10:26:41   14-11-10   MFS: Call Sign 161 changed to BLP211. N4 B
MFS Beuler Park BLP211

then

1930660   10:26:49   14-11-10   MFS: Call Sign BLP211 changed to 161. N4 B
MFS Beuler Park BLP211

Are they changing call signs or is it an error  :?

This is the standard prodedure when changing appliances.Old Fleet Number changing to new Fleet Number so 161 is now Beulah Park 211 :wink:

Both MCT's must be on to effect the changeover.

Fleet 161 is a spare Scania 93M while Beulah Parks 94D gets serviced.
