    I see newly repainted (in blue) 55 009 ran from the DPS base to York on the 21st. Wonder if it has a part to play on Thursday with the return working?

    They don't but one would hope they would get clouted by 60103 so as to stop them inflicting their awful groups and programmes on the innocent. :)

    Was that comment really necessary or relevant?

    Not sure why the 47 should look scruffy, it too has only just been out of works 12 months if that

    Maybe they're some of the new footplate staff which DBS are recruiting to run more railtours? Just imagine ...

    To help them, they're going to resdeign the AWS cancel button to look like this:

    Probably not the place for this, but are DBS recruiting additional drivers, would suggest that they are confident that they can get more work if they are?

    Nice one! But I am sure if it got to 98mph something would give it a hard jolt for a momentary acceleration to 100mph and back!
