    These seem to be a combination of LM and TY run trains.
    If you put Tyseley Steam Trust in RTT for tomorrow you get just 5Z70 Tyseley Steam Trust to Hall Green and 5Z76 Acocks Green to Tyseley Steam Trust.
    However on Matt's list you have 1Z70 Hall Green to S-U-A and 1Z72 S-U-A to Acocks Green, 1Z74Hall Green to S-U-A and 1Z76 S-U-A to Acocks Green run by the TOC TY which seem to fit in with 5Z70 and 5Z76.
    Then again there's nothing between 1Z72 terminating and 1Z74 starting.
    All those I've listed here are timed for diesel trailing 280 tonnes.
    Can anyone make any sense of it seeing as 1Z** is supposed to be passengers?

    Not sure why they are showing as class 1 but Ben has already said a few posts back that it is not carrying passengers. Ignore the runs shown as LM, I believe they are paths for 172/0 training runs which have not started yet.

    He said not "fare paying" passengers, I have seen share holders/press run mentioned elsewhere

    What Ben said was "No fare-paying passengers are being carried" which is not quite the same thing. There could be a few passengers from press/staff/tourist trade.rail industry etc, either as thanks for support and hard work, or as a preview of VT's wares

    UKSteam has E+ECS to Hall Green then E+CS to S-U-A and back to Acocks Green on both trips.
    Still nothing for how it's going to get from Acocks Green at the end of the first trip to Hall Green for the start of the second.

    Maybe running a Shakespeare Express has tricked the weather into thinking it's summer ;)

    Quick stop at Bearley on the way home from work.

    Here's a photo from earlier this evening of 7029 pretty much bombing it through Widney Manor in the evening sunset (17:10) roughly.
