    Over the Harringworth about 10:15 from the look of it.

    Is '09 fit for this? I guess being the first UK RTC trip since the passing of Nigel, the loco will carry a wreath..

    Thanks. Couldn't agree with you more. An A4 is head and shoulders above anything else on rails.

    A dull Rotherby this morning, I feel for the walkers who had waited on the other side of the crossing to see no.9 pass...

    My footage of 60009 Union of South Africa carrying a wreath in tribute to Nigel Dobbing. Filmed at Souldrop and Great Oakley. Video also features Pannier Tank 9466 starting at 2:20. Enjoy.

    'No.9' included in the beginning departing Bedford. This is believed to be the last steam to pass this spot, before masts begin to appear on the right hand side, obstructing one of two southbound views left south of Kettering that are unaffected.

    Remind me of the excellent trip I had back in March with Oliver Cromwell on the same run. That day had lots of snow which added to the atmosphere.
