    With 2020 right around the corner I thought it would be good to start this thread. The performances that all of the locomotives in The Carnforth pool where good in my opinion during 2019. It is wonderful having 46115 back in steam following its most recent overhaul too. Expecting 35018 out on some of these as well the Jubilees but am leaning more towards the two numbers above because of power classification.

    That's going to be a busy day with the Cotton Mill on the same day...
    Edit; and there's a Spirit of the Lakes from Peterborough to Carlisle with steam just one way, Preston to Carlisle.

    Leander under maintenance through the Winter months based on the article in Steam Railway talking to Chris Beet, so that can probably be crossed off the list of potential motive power for the WCME's.

    Like Feb 2nd last year, though it could mean 'getting up' earlier than planned for this route. 20190202_160000.jpg
