    Could not find a thread for this. Clan Line as Belgian Marine.
    The following has been lifted from SE gen, can anyone here work out for certain, if the route between Grosvenor Bridge and Denmark Hill is over the top of Brixton, or will it take the lines to the left just before Brixton?
    A note at the end showed Assisstance by a diesel only as far as Grosvenor Bridge, but Diesel on rear to stay attached throughout tour.

    Just passing through Shortlands about 15'L, having been thwarted by a points failure at Victoria meaning a shift from Plat 2 to Plat 7.

    Train is formed 13, with a 67 on the back :(

    They obviously do not intend to get stuck on the bank to Martin Mill, then!

    About 35 late near Charing. Just shut off for the 50 mph restriction currently in force there.

    Lovely one Bryan and a clever bit of timing with the shutter (and the exhaust) to hide the DL. It really is amazing what a bit of car wax and elbow grease can do for the paintwork. Just like the old steam days.....LOL.

    Although with no where to stop between here and Paddock Wood, can't see anywhere to detach the 67 before going through the Shakespeare Tunnels, which I though is is a must for egress reasons?

    Looked good from the air as well. Whilst orbitting over Otford (it was about 6 mins down here) spotted the exhaust 5 miles North and it looked spectacular! Sorry no photos. Escorted it as far as Maidstone in perfect weather.

    I think those requirements have changed. There were some t+t workings through Shakespeare Tunnel to Sandwich for the Golf Open back in the summer.
