    NYMR crews were involved , I think under West Coast's safety case with Bill Andrew as their Inspector. I suspect that Chris Cubitt was involved in all of them. I was his fireman on the 26/5/03, the day we carried 80116's front numberplate. That day the job entailed Grosmont to Whitby, Whitby to Glaisdale and back twice, then Whitby back to Grosmont. Being a Sunday there was only a very limited local service on the line then. However it did involve permissive platform working as seen here at Whitby, which although allowed, I have not seen it happen very often.
