Hello chaps, please tell me what "wnxx" is ?

62440 · #9 14th July 2010, 14:48

Certainly 48111. http://www.wnxx.com is a website run by enthusiasts listing all stored locos. wnxx is a operational group (pool) code used on the railways to denote that a (EWS) loco is stored unserviceable.
There are over 100 codes, qcar for example is Network Rail new measurement train class 43.

ejlo is London Midland class 08.

Loads more listed in the back of the spotting books.

Hope this helps, Regards, 62440.
