    Anyone know what's on the Belmond Golden Arrow to Canterbury today and whether 34067 had a problem or just pulled? I'm assuming industrial action will postpone 34067's trip scheduled for 26/11?

    It shouldn't do as it's an ASLEF strike. It may even provide a clearer path.

    Taking a wild stab, is 98898 as indicated on RTT's possibly SNG's tops number?

    Edit - A quick google suggests that it is.

    Full marks for commitment there.
    Trivia alert! -- A thought occurred to me this morning (just after the exhaust blew down :() - 44997 piloted 60009 between Perth and Aberdeen on 25/3/1967 but I can't recall whether since then a Black 5 and A4 have ever hauled a train in tandem with the 5 leading ?
    (60009 and 44871 double headed the GB in 2019 with the A4 leading).

    2008 North Briton. 45407 leading 60009 Perth to Inverness on the 13th April and Inverness to Perth on the 15th April. 45407 replaced 61994 due to the need for an air braked engine as the train was being operated by EWS.
