    Doesn't look like 45212 has used the projected path from Weymouth to Bristol. Let's hope it ultimately makes tomorrow's Royal Duchy. A lot of effort has gone in with that goal.

    45212 passing Upwey nearly 1 hour late.
    The delay meant the rain had passed and the sun had come out about 5 minutes before, so I was on the wrong side by then. The delay also managed to screw 2V72 the GWR Weymouth Gloucester service which is currently 45 late at Bruton. The Black 5 still showing at Pen Mill presumably awaiting the southbound 2080 to arrive such is the length of the single line sections.
    Edit
    Or maybe more issues based on @free2grice post

    Seen at Maiden Newton where a certain amount of attention was given to a tender axlebox. I assumed they were just being careful and ensuring it was well lubricated.

    Cheers, Neil

    Railcam reports this as 35018 and 44932. No mention of diesel.
    EDIT 37516 now added to consist. Presumably dragging along the 2 steam?
    EDIT EDIT: 44932 now 45699 (aka 45627/45562) 0n Railcam, dragged along by 37516.
