LE Movements, ECS and Test Runs 2019

Is tornado fit to run again after its repair to one of its main steam pipes i presume then?

 

Ooh, now there's a reason to get out the house.

 

Stevenage, 61306 & 60103 and two coaches...

Nice to see Mayflower is healthy again.

 

Although when passing Yaxley station just now, it looked like 60103 was doing all the work! Lovely to see Mayflower again in my favourite livery

 

60009 passing through Carlisle whilst enroute from Bo'ness to Carnforth today.

 

Passing Beckfoot.

 

61306 and 60103 passing Yaxley at lunchtime:

 

60009 leaving Bo'ness at 07.00 today.

 

Like that a lot. Apart from the barely visible lamp on the centre iron...it's timeless.

 

I can't see there being much 'work' involved, no point in having two of them blasting away. Economics sir, save a bit on the coal bill.
Bit like Deltics cruising around on one engine, no point in having both engines running when just one can get the job done.

 

Thank you. I just had time for a quick shot between her emerging from the murk and me having to run downstairs with the token.

 

is that a large water stain on the front footplating of Mayflower?

 

Lovely. Render that into black and white, play with the gamma and add a bit of noise and it'd look stunning.

 

crikey...

 

On the joint line near Spalding with yesterdays run to York.

 

Very nice...

@Mods - what's the single file size limit on here?

 

Was it me but when I noted it at Doncaster during it's brief stop 60103 looked very tired and work-stained. Hopefully the cleaners can soon remedy this at the NRM.
