M1 Track Machine 19/06/24

Hi,

Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place, apologies if not. I saw a Plasser 08-16/90 (or at least I think it was) on the M1 southbound at Junction 15 this morning (around 0645). I've narrowed it down to one of DR73502/3 or DR75201/2 but can't get any further. Would anyone happen to know which one it was please?

Thanks in advance

I think Trackwork 73502 most likely. Possibly 73503. 73502 is yellow and green but I think 73503 is all yellow.

It won't be 75201 or 75202 as they are both preserved in Kent.

Thank you for the help, I'm pretty sure it had the original light clusters so that rules out 73503 looking at photos. Must've indeed been 73502 if the other two are in Kent

A mate has passed 75302 on the M1 at 6am this morning around the Leicester. He could only read the T204 fleet number so has been asking me for the other numbers it has.

Should have added it was going south on the M1

That perfectly confirms my sighting as well then, thank you very much for that!
