    Interesting. The path appears to have been resurrected with the same starting time but no further times recorded.

    Apparently ran a hot box at Peterborough, and is now in Eastfield being checked over.

    Does that mean it's game over for this evening's run to Norwich then?

    Not necessarily. I see that 5Z53 has been updated in RTT to say departed P'boro 15:58 (113L). Does this mean that remedial action has been successful and FS is on her way to Ely, or that the ECS is proceeding without FS? Anyone "on the ground" able to enlighten the rest of us?

    Thanks. That's a shame. Let's hope FS can be fixed before her next trains on Saturday.

    Thanks for the replies. I was looking forward to my first run with Scotsman since it's return. Looks like a wasted journey now - such is life

    From Steam Dreams website:

    “We are very sorry to have to advise you that on our trip with The Cathedrals Express this lunchtime the Flying Scotsman developed a fault with one of its driving wheels (technically known as a hotbox) which unfortunately means the locomotive is a failure and this evening’s Cathedrals Express to Norwich will be diesel hauled.”
