Taken on March,9th / 2020 in the Nam Cat Tien National Park, Vietnam.
The locomotive was manufactured in Henschel-Werke (Kassel - Germany) in 1965.
Model: 75 (DH1100), works number 31140
Depot: Septemvri
Met Koningsdag is het altijd een drukte van belang rondom Arnhem. Arriva haalt dan extra treinen uit verschillende concessies om de treinen vanuit Arnhem naar Winterswijk en Tiel te versterken.
Dit jaar werden drie stellen vanuit Groningen gehaald die gingen rijden op Winterswijk-Zutphen-Apeldoorn. Twee stellen van de Maaslijn om te rijden op Arnhem-Tiel. En twee stellen van de Vechtdallijn om de extra pendel te verzorgen tussen Arnhem en Zevenaar.
Voordat ik zelf mocht rijden met de Limburgse stellen werd begin van de middag even naar de Betuwelijn getogen om ze te fotograferen.
Een stek die ik uiteraard wilde doen was het fraaie punt net buiten het station van Opheusden richting Kesteren. Tegen de tijd dat de trein kwam rond 14 uur stond de zon ook nét goed, dus dit kwam perfect uit!
Als RS33 31140 zijn Arriva GTW's 391+389 zojuist vanuit Opheusden vertrokken richting Tiel.

Na mijn bezoek aan Herveld reed ik rond 14 uur weer weg omdat ik niks bijzonders meer verwachte langs de Betuweroute. Misschien reed er thuis nog wel wat interessants dus verliet ik de voor mij nieuwe stek. Nog voor ik bij de snelweg was, stopte ik alweer om een foto te schieten van een trein. Ditmaal geen fraaie, zware goederentrein, maar een heel licht treintje.
Tussen Tiel en Arnhem rijdt al zolang ik me kan herinneren (Blijkt sinds 2012 te zijn, ontdek ik net op het wereldwijde web.) dieseltreintjes van Arriva. Enkele jaren geleden reisde ik bijna wekelijks met deze treinen, maar inmiddels is dat voor mij ook verleden tijd.
Toen ik op deze 31e januari bij toeval de overweg rechts van mij hoorde rinkelen en zag sluiten, twijfelde ik niet om even snel een plaatje te schieten van zo'n modeltreintje in de schaal 1:1. Arriva 261 bromt als stoptrein 31140 de fotograaf voorbij nadat het net station Zetten-Andelst heeft verlaten.
[NL] Wie de beschrijvingen van mijn foto’s op deze stream leest zal het vast wel eens opgevallen zijn dat ik vaak met de fiets onderweg ben. Op de 28e van februari 2021 was dat wederom het geval, met lenteachtige tempraturen en een strakblauwe lucht was er weer voldoende aanleiding om op pad te gaan. Het mooie weer was tevens een goede motivatie om een wat grotere ronde af te leggen, daarom werd voor het eerst sinds een tijdje de Rijn overgestoken en genoten van het Betuwse landschap. Vlak voordat we Valburg bereikten staken we de Betuwelijn over, en wat wil het toeval? Vanuit Arnhem kwam de Tielmobiel al in zicht, dus reden genoeg om even een foto te maken. Als trein 31140 is GTW 256 onderweg naar Tiel. Het treinstel is vernoemd naar Piet Oudolf, één van ‘s lands bekendste tuinarchitecten.
[EN] The Betuwe line, not te be confused with the Betuwe route, is secondary line between Elst and Tiel. Since 2005, this line is operated by private train operating companies. Arriva is responsible for the train services since 2012 and uses Stadler GTW DMU’s. It is just another Sunday when DMU 256 ‘Piet Oudolf’ runs between Arnhem and Tiel to move a handful of passengers. Near Valburg, a small town that had a station until 1938, I encountered this train and made a picture of this tiny train.
[DE] Seit 2005 sind private EVU zuständig für das Betrieb zwischen Arnhem und Tiel. Arriva fährt mit GTW Triebzüge seit 2012. Es ist ‚nur‘ ein normaler Sonntag wenn Tz 256 ‚Piet Oudolf‘ kurz vor Valburg passiert als Stoptrein 31140 nach Tiel.

Misschien de laatste herfst voor SGM en zeker buiten hun normale inzetgebied een gewild 'jachtobject'
Zodra er vernomen werd dat er (weer) enkele diensten SGM in de 6900 terecht zijn gekomen werden er plannen gemaakt om deze met herfstkleuren vast te leggen.
De bomen bij station Tiel begonnen al aardig in herfstkleuren te tooien dus voor een slag werd naar station Tiel gereden.
Een combi met Arriva GTW zou helemaal tijdsbepalend zijn.
SGM3 treinstel 2950 staat gereed om als 6948 naar Den Haag (Centraal) te vertrekken terwijl zojuist Arriva GTW 2/6 treinstel 257 als 31140 uit Arnhem is binnengelopen.
Dit plaatje doet mij herinneren aan een plaat van SGM3 naast DE3 in `92.
50011 and 31421 stand on the stops on platforms 9 and 10 at Paddington, 2nd August 1977.
Locomotive History
50011 was originally D411 and was built by English Electric at their Vulcan Foundry works, Newton-Le-Willows, entering traffic during March 1968 on West Coast Main Line duties north of Crewe. In February 1974 50011 was transferred to the Western Region and allocated to Bristol before moving to Laira three months later. In February 1978 it arrived at Doncaster works with accident damage and would not be released back into traffic until the 10th April 1979. The Western Region decided to name the class 50 locomotives after Royal Navy Warships and 50011 was named Centurion on the 17th August 1979, without ceremony, the plates being fitted at its home depot of Laira. The last HMS Centurion was a 23400 ton King George V class battleship launched in November 1911. It served through out World War One and was in action at the Battle of Jutland. Decommissioned in 1925 HMS Centurion was converted to a remote controlled target ship from and was used in this role until June 1927. At the outbreak of the Second World War in September 1939 HMS Centurion was still in existence and became a repair ship, followed by a spell as a dummy battleship (disguised as HMS Anson) during June 1942. HMS Centurion was eventually broken up in 1945 after being run aground as a breakwater at Normandy on 9th June 1944. In order to prolong the life expectancy of the class 50 fleet, a decision was taken to completely refurbish the class during the early 1980's, which involved removing various items from the original design. 50011 arrived at Doncaster Works during November 1982 and re-entered traffic in the BR Large-Logo livery during April 1983. In the end the refurbishment program proved to be an expensive luxury as less than four years later the rundown of the class started with the withdrawal of 50011 in February 1987. Following withdrawal 50011 was towed to Crewe works for use as a static generator and allocated the departmental number ADB968031, although this was never carried. It became unserviceable in this role in 1991 and was broken up by Texas metals on site at Crewe works in September 1992. 31421 was originally D5558 and was built by Brush at Loughborough in 1959. Under the 1973 TOPS renumbering scheme D5558 became 31140. During the 1970’s a number of class 31’s were fitted with electric train heating equipment for both secondary passenger duties and empty coaching stock duties between carriage depots and stations. 31140 was fitted with electric train heating and dual braking equipment during a classified repair at Doncaster works in the autumn of 1974. It was released into traffic in November 1974, renumbered 31421 and allocated to Cricklewood for empty coaching stock duties between Cricklewood and St Pancras. After thirty eight years service it was withdrawn in March 1997. Following withdrawal it was stored in Crewe South Yard for a number of years until moved to Carnforth in January 2003. This was followed in September 2003 with a move to the Midland Railway Centre at Swanwick. However preservation passed it by and in April 2007 it was transported by road to EMR Kingsbury and broken up in August 2007.

The approximate 195 tons trailing load of six Mark I vehicles plus the 109 tons of the locomotive is obviously on this occasion to much for the 1470 bhp available to 31421 to get it up the Lickey bank as it has picked up the two class 37 bankers to give it a shove up the hill. The class 31, 2x class 37 combination is seen here as they start to accelerate away from the standing start as they approach Bromsgrove station and the start of the bank, 14th April 1979.
Locomotive History
31421 was originally D5558 and was built in 1959. The class were built with even less powerful Mirrlees JVS12T 1250bhp engines but the engines were not successful and in 1964 a programme of works commenced to re-engine the fleet with the more powerful 1470bhp English Electric 12SVT engine. Under the 1973 TOPS renumbering scheme D5558 became 31140. During the 1970’s a number of class 31’s were fitted with electric train heating equipment for both secondary passenger duties and empty coaching stock duties between carriage depots and stations. 31140 was fitted with electric train heating and dual braking equipment during a classified repair at Doncaster works in the autumn of 1974. It was released into traffic in November 1974, renumbered 31421 and allocated to Cricklewood for empty coaching stock duties between Cricklewood and St Pancras. Despite being somewhat underpowered it would give thirty eight years service and would remain in traffic until withdrawn in March 1997. Following withdrawal it was stored in Crewe South Yard for a number of years until moved to Carnforth in January 2003. This was followed in September 2003 with a move to the Midland Railway Centre at Swanwick. However preservation passed it by and in April 2007 it was transported by road to EMR Kingsbury and broken up in August 2007.

Pictured a mile or so south of Walsden, First B7TL 31140 will soon cross the border into the Borough of Rochdale as it heads for the afternoon school run from Wardle.
This has always been a Yorkshire based bus, mostly with First South Yorkshire.

31140
Bij sommige lijn kom je nauwelijks zoals de lijn tussen Tiel - (Elst) - Arnhem. De lijn gaat dwars door de Betuwe en de Arriva dieselstellen doen onder andere de plaatsjes Kesteren en Zetten-Andelst aan. Door de revisie van de huidige GTW stellen, is Arriva genoodzaakt om GTW's bij Breng te huren. Deze worden nu ingezet in de treinserie 31100. Breng stel 5044 trof ik dan ook bij station Hemmen-Dodewaard als stoptrein 31140 naar Tiel.
