    That explains the larger than normal police presence at Crewe.

    Something to look out for. In a short interview for RH 504, Clive Mojonnier, Chairman of the 6201 Society seemed confident she'll be ready for an initial mainline test in the next few days. She'll then move to Carnforth to do the proper test around the Carnforth Circle.

    I hear on the grapevine that she'll head for Southall after that. I wonder which routes she has been gauged for?
