Hope that’s useful.

Perhaps the 757 is earmarked for their Baghdad flights? I’ll believe it when I see it!

Not a perfect fit, but the only one I can think of for the 310/330 airline is Yemenia. No red stripe though and the tail is partly blue – but they do operate both types and the tail is partly red and white.

I’m currently listening to the Heathrow frequencies. The inbound tower frequency is 118.7 which is called up about 7 or 8 miles before landing. Before going to that frequency they are on 120.4 as they manoevre onto the approach. The outbound tower frequency (clear for take-off) is 118.5.

I used this train last year. It is fairly expensive, being a recently built high speed line. It is quite an experience though with speeds in excess of 300 kph (almost 200 mph) shown on a digital readout in the carriage. Makes UK trains seem very slow (probably because they are!).
