4150 was taken to Bridgnorth this afternoon with D4100 doing the honours.

And an all Western Region lineup this week with 1501, 7712, 2857, 2999 and D821

Is it mainly just boiler work to do with 415o now?

 

Big individual job wise, I think so. But reassembly and final fitting out will probably take a little while.

 

I appreciate there’s still a bit to do, should make an interesting comparison when 4150 and 82045 are in traffic together.

 

Reports indicate 7714 failed this evening. 2857 take its place tomorrow (S1), 1501 will be on S2 and possibly 6960 on N1.

 

2999 had a spin on the turntable this morning and is now facing north (Bridgnorth).

 

7714, having been repaired since the other day, will be taking over tomorrow from 2857 which needs a bit of attention itself.

 

Does anyone have the times off Kidder and Bridgenorth for the Saint tomorrow (Friday)?

I know first off is 10.40 from Kidderminster, but trying to work out where to catch her during the day.

I've not had a chance to see her yet (My Gala visit day was Sunday - duh!) but unexpectedly have a day off work tomorrow so considering a day trip...

Having been supporter for may years, I really want to see her run on a full line with my own eyes!

Thanks,
Neil.
