LE Movements, ECS and Test Runs 2020

I've read elsewhere that the reason it's left the ELR is that it's owner has sold it.

No idea who has bought it or where it's heading for.

 

I never thought of that I suppose. Hope it finds a new home and is well looked after if that is the case.

 

I have meet Fletch many times on my visits to the shed shop at the Moors. A legend and I got his book as well. Sadly missed

 

Suppose that subject to checks its allowed on NR Metals as long as there are no passengers.
Not wagging a finger at anyone but fact remains there are a few others like it gently decomposing at , amongst other places, Carnforth.
Hope its going to a good home...

'Jacobite' engines and stock to Fort William

 

Looks like K1 with morning stock on Sunday with the 2 black 5s double heading with the afternoon stock on Monday. It will be interesting to see if both trains have a diesel on the front from Carnforth to Craigendoran which the timings may suggest.

 

Seems fair enough. It would be a shame to see both moves being diesel dragged all the way to Craigendoran but understandable for water consumption and also pathing.

 

Can someone on nat pres confirm if 60163 tornado is doing a test run 10.7.2020 tomorrow from york via leeds along the aire valley ive just seen this info on the facebook site unofficial keighley worth valley posted by someone on that forum that its going through keighley.

 

Doubt it’s a test run just a move to 10A.

 

Thanks for cofirming that about tornado steve.

 

I’m only guessing but someone may well know more about it.

 

Moving to carnforth

 

Sorry Davo - nothing moving off York tomorrow. I understand that it was a move that was planned sometime last month for No.9 but it has now been deferred until at least the end of this month. At present the NRM is still in lockdown, with only very limited site access for outside interests. There will be no movements from there just yet. Tornado is staying where it is for now.

5Z23 for 10/7/2020 only is now shown as "Q" - runs as required.
Schedule ready for Train Planning MK to copy forward and check when a new date is agreed.

Cheers, Neil

 

Could this be the K1 today round the Hellifield - Preston circuit? AN

K1 yes - but if you look at it you will see that it is not the circuit path. Only to Hellifield and back.
