    Our PA didn’t work to any great extent in first coach behind the support but I get the debate about pax not being allowed off. I’ll see what the BLS say. What a cracking day though, the best bit for me was charging through Durham.

    Funny the details that some people notice and others don't. For me the give away that this isnt the real 76001 isnt the cab but the Southern lamp brackets on the smokebox door. I believe that this is because 76079 had its last overhaul down south...

  8. torgormaig liked 45698Mars's post in the thread Jacobite 2026.

    A nice thought but it doesn't really make sense. Note too that the WCR Jacobite website advertises "heritage Mk2 coaches". If I had a nice shiny rake of CDL fitted Mk1's then why would I send it to work with air brake fitted locos in Scotland...
