    Well done to all concerned with its overhaul, it looks good!

    Couple of questions, where is the grey coloured box that's needed for mainline running placed? On the likes of 70000 and 5029 it's placed on the top at the back of the tender! Also, has it got its own support coach or is it using one of the other IOS locomotives coach?

    There were 2 coachs in Bridgo yard over the weekend. Im guessing one was 70000's and one was for 46100, ready for its loaded test.

    The two coaches that were in bridgo MPD (now only one) are both RS Ltd owned vehicles. I understand the one which has remained with the Scot was previously used as 34046's support coach.

    Did anyone record the numbers and liveries of said carriages or perhaps photograph them.

    At the same time 46100 was roaded from Crewe Heritage Centre its support coach was roaded from Crewe LNWR Heritage Co,

    Sorry if you read this question in the Gala thread, but wondering whether Royal Scot is expected to work any further passenger turns while at the Valley?

    Hymek to BH, 50 to BY, D1015 to BH, D9531 to AY, then hymek to Bridgnorth and back to Kidderminster. The 14 was going nicely on 7 LMS coaches, the hymek seemed a bit jolty at times but nice bit of noise and clag.

    Right, so 46100 will be in use on service trains on the 17th, 18th, 24 and 25th alongside 60163 giving a mini gala. Normal fares apply and timetable B will be in operation on all 4 days.
