    70013 is staying south for a while now rather than in Crewe. 5305 is heading back up to Carnforth this week from Loughborough after a paint refresh and an ashpan mod.

    No halucinations ! The move is a Class 37 diesel, not steam, so it was deleted !

    Is this so she can run in Braunton's place on "The Solent Pacific" on 22 September I wonder, or can we expect her to appear on a "Royal Duchy" or "WSE" for RTC between now and then perhaps ? (guaging permitting of course)

    Firstly, it is there to double head with 71000 for the Tamar Devonian, as it is standing in for Britannia, which has a broken spring. Then it will likely stay at Bristol for a while, possibly doing some TEs

    Abit early to be moving for that tour, it's still 2 months or so away yet! Lot's can happen between now and then and SOS calls be made for other tours, as has happened already this year.

    If anyone can get any hands on times for 44871's move to Carnforth on Thursday, it'd be greatly appreciated. :)
