    I see that the stock was 89 minutes late arriving from Crewe Heritage Centre so as a result it's not left Llandudno yet 9.55 .

    I wonder if 44932 will cover for tomorrow ? The Black Fives saving the GB is tradition.

    Assuming it was discovered at the stop in Lockerbie DPL (where the train is still stopped). Bad luck for the passengers and the galleries on Beattock. Hopefully not an expensive fix.

    I fear it will be a 47 tomorrow. Thursday might be a different story.

    Will it not depend on what has been gauged on the NR system for the trip tomorrow?
    A Black 5 may be on there who knows what else.

    I doubt anything can be done tonight. Tomorrow for Thursday is a different matter.

    Support crew would be the issue there.
