LE Movements

Lizzie didn't make it to Dorridge, must have turned right in to Tyseley instead.

 

67026 has been painted with the flag on the side because its been hauling the royal train.
I'm guessing this was DBS operated then as a pose to WCR?
Nice shots!

DBS wished to have a trial run, as 6201 failed prior to their last operation with it.

61994 + POB arrived Perth 4 early at 13.04 on Thornton - Inverness move. I should've checked uksteam, I hadn't realised it was moving today!

 

Anybody know if Ollie is on the move, and if she is on her own or has a box for company?

 

47245 + 70013 (the kettle) departs BTM at 12:06 for southall


Via Yahoo SWRG - (the diesel was on the front on the way to Bristol on Friday).

 

Thanks for that.

No doubt the box will be on the front again.

Still I'll probably nip out to see it.............................

 

47.245 + 70013 5Z28 reported arriving at Southall 13 early. <BJ>

 

Indeed, they passed me at Iver about 10 early, and they weren't hanging about - I swear the Brit was pushing the box lol!

 

Were the locos returning the whole train from yesterday's tour?

 

Indeed they were - wasn't expecting it, almost caught me on the hop - didn't get the shots I wanted!

The Brit was actually working and not just along for the ride, if it wasn't for her exhaust they'd have been on top of me before I knew it - they shut her off just before the station.

 

Oh my, three light engine moves in the next three days, Tornado to Crewe from the north Wednesday, ducking and diving in and out of loops all afternoon and into the evening, but you never know if they get a chance to go early.
the A4 from Hellifield to Crewe on Thursday evening via Clitheroe blackburn,
and Friday morning 46201 heads up to Hellifield via Carnforth and the little north western,
gonna have to make plans to catch em all....

 

any times for the A4 move anywhere yet?
