IETs suffering from the heat. - Posted: July 3, 2018 - 1:07 PM Quote and reply
Two unofficial comments:

The hot weather appears to be taking its toll on the IETs with numerous engines overheating. Yesterday (2nd July) there were only 23 sets available for traffic to cover 32 diagrams.

Apparently they’ve found an inaccessible space between the intercooler and the radiator, which gets clogged and affects the cooling.
