    What's happened to 48151 and the ecs? ?
    it passed new mills south junction 5 min down, ahead of the EMT Liverpool, but has yet to arrive in Stockport. The EMT has gone through though.
    RTT is showing no actual times after New Mills Sth, so I can only assume it has been routed onto Cheadle Heath line at Hazel Grove.

    Looks like they were routed via romiley and woodley they must have watered up at Woodley instead of Denton.

    I understand that a bearing ran hot which will entail a wheel drop. At a guess at least a week before the next test run.
