Cath Ex - Flying Scotsman - 21/05/16

Its reversing at Laverstock N Jct as it will have a DL on the back all day

 

Oh bugger! Sods law says I'll be in the last coach then.

 

Well, the whole route has just been shown on the local news..............................

Along with the mandatory stay off the tracks warning.

 

She is heading South with a Class 37 today. So it could be either that or the Class 47 on the rear tomorrow.

 

Thanks.
So 37 on the front then.

 

How do we know that there will be a diesel? If one is planned I just hope that it unfortunately fails!

 

Can anyone confirm FS will be departing Sailsbury on the afternoon tea trip at 14.00. Lots of people from my work place are going out to see FS in Southampton.

 

Not 14.00, will send a PM

 

FS will not be dep Salisbury at 1400

 

How do I get RTT times, young man?

 

This is now turning into a farce!

 

Cheers to everyone for the heads up on this tour. Looking forward to seeing FS at Eastleigh tomorrow afternoon.

 

They might as well have published the times as well.....................

Also sounds like crowd control will be in place at the major stations.

Can also see roads along the route becoming clogged to boot - though the weather forecast doesn't look too clever.

 

PM sent.

 

Pointless post... its just been posted its reversing at Laverstock North... Diesel on back all day for operational reasons and ..dare I say it insurance..

 

Some modern gubbins you like eh??

Good luck at Wembley !! Green Army!

 

So can anyone PM me the times at Salisbury then please, as I'll be away, but I stand to lose serious street-cred from one of my wife's friends who wants to take her children to see FS, and I've suggested 2pm...

Tom

 

Yes thank you, I meant Salisbury! Too many cathedrals around for my brain to cope.
