    Thanks for that.
    Was going out to see Tangmere bringing the 2 support coaches up early,
    as was planned with 5029, but won't need to now.

    Would I be correct in thinking Tangmere is leading because Cromwell is vac braked only?

    I would say so as Western Champion was on the front for the same reason. (Cromwell is piped-through)

    Both wrong - the set is dual-braked and is being worked in vacuum throughout. Hobson's Choice as to which loco is leading.
