    Sad, but it's unusual for there not to be something to tweak between the test runs and first revenue earning trip. That's why it's wise to leave a gap.

    A light and loaded run from Tyseley to Stratford (20 miles each way?) and return doesn't seem much for a loco straight from overhaul. I thought there was a requirement for a minimum distance (1000 miles?) fault free running in period?

    You try 1000 miles at Tyseley then you'll wear the reverser out first!.

    As you would at Crewe too. That's why 46100 went to the SevernValley before going main line.

    Saw the train with diesel top and tail at Weaverthorpe on time.
    From the distance I was, about 1/4 mile, it looked very empty.
