LE Movements, ECS and Test Runs 2015

A few days to go until 2015, I thought that it would be good to get the ball rolling, even though none have been scheduled.

 

Are you sure?........... Tangers went Oop North the beginning of Jan this year, so if she already hasn't, maybe she will?..........

Also, after tomorrow 4464 will be moving from Southall to the MHR at some point, whether is this year, or next who knows...........

As an afterthought, maybe ask the mods to stick 2015 on the end of the thread title?.........

 

Thanks Al.

I was also wondering if Tangmere had moved.

 

Tangmere is still at southall

Is the plan still to move 73096 on, or about the 5th or is that path to run Tangmere back up north for maintenance.

 

No both engines are staying at southall

really long way round for a short cut, they need to sort Standedge & Calder Valley out, gauge wise

 

I did think it was a vast route to get to Crewe and a long day for the crew.

A shot of No9 through the falling rain between Settle Junction and Giggleswick (as it says on the tin - not the best location but the price you sometimes pay for trying something different):

I reckon it'll be Leander to check her out prior to Saturday. They better not find anything wrong with her though, as I don't want our tour to lose a 2nd Jubilee.

 

Its a class 33 , not steam sadly .
