    I was told 15:05 Chester departure, ECS moves align with that, but no idea other intermediate times.

    My video of Galatea with 'The Cheshireman', filmed at Searchlight Lane, just north of Stafford. Little to no evidence of assistance from the 47 up the incline.

    Good to meet fellow Nat Pres member @Spike there.

    Well as it was it's last run in the south it would've been rude not to see it one last time! Having been to the Didcot Castles event I headed to Cheddington to see 45699 bring the tour home, she was certainly flying!!
