    Thanks for that :)

    I wonder if they will use the same path as far as Crewe (would make sense?).

    I also have been informed that 70013 is going to Crewe for tyre turning, and probably using the original path.

    thanks AN, as I hadn't seen or heard it on sat night, thought it might have gone to crewe, turned out it wasn't going direct to southall.

    and 60017, I see you managed to drag yourself out of your pit as well. nice pic by the way, the smoke deflectors dont work so well at slow speed, ref vid clip.

    here's a clip of it leaving the UDGL:-
