I tried looking through the forum but have had difficulty getting the info, I am looking for Locomotive ETH (known later as ETS) index ratings.

Eg are class 90 rated at 95
Class 50 rated at 61
Class 31/4 rated at 66
Class 92 rated at 108

I know this info is not uniform to the class as some were ETH isolated and many had sub-classes (90/1 were isolated, 86/1 were higher than 86/2s making the latter a little more unusual on the full Mk3 consists, being normally confined to Mk2s)

Just trying to figure out what locos I can use on consists outside of rule one

So if anyone knows of a resource or list it would be much appreciated.

Class 86/1 were preferred on Mark 3 sets to cover for Class 87/0 under maintenance
There were also a small number of Class 86/2 uprated to 110mph
