LE Movements

4492 running about an hour late near Donny.

 

About 45 mins late through Retford, looked and sounded great whistling up going through the station.
Wardy.

 

Nice picture Wardy, thank you. And a nice "form vs function" case study, with that yellow bricklike-thingy next to her!

 

Did Tornado get away from York?..............surprised nobody seems to be out on this one.......

 

Just past me in Strensall 1208 heading to Scarborough, only running at about 30mph with single support coach, most surprising!

 

Maybe they don't want to blow the new firebox................

 

More like bedding the rings and rebored cylinders in.

 

Running approx 1 hour late due to it being the same crew as 71000 yesterday and as the tour ran late their 12 hour rest time lasted till after the published departure time.

 

Only joking.....hope the run goes well and the loaded second run too..

 

Makes sense - thanks for putting the record straight & (hopefully) killing off speculation

Just had a report that 60163 + coach left York for Scarbro at about 1700; note, just the one coach.

 

Uksteam has a light engine movement for 48151 to return from Shrewsbury to Carnforth on Sunday. Bit confused as 48151 is due to come off the Heart of Wales at Newport on Saturday and I thought she was then due to move to the London area to work for Steam Dreams in June.. Is she heading north to Shrewsbury on Saturday or east to London?!

 

48151 follows the train north to Shrewsbury where it stables Saturday night. Timings are on uksteam but are included with the main train times rather than as a LE movement.

Today's LE movement of 70000 Britannia from the WSR has obviously been cancelled due to its' failure on the 28th May. <BJ>
