    Nice video and I guess the shape of things to come in 2025 - i.e. stock, loco type and helper.

    I certainly wouldn’t have made the effort of chasing this one if it had been the usual 44871, but 45212 is quite rare enough on this side of the country (and a personal favourite from firing it at the NVR) so I was easily won over on this one!
    Captured at Langford, Newark & Bentley

    Hope to see more of this one before it bails out of ticket!

    I only got to see her at Peterborough. Superb loco.
    My video of the 'moves' at Peterborough is here, I'm still trying to get the hang of panning, while trying to move carefully around my tripod's legs. It's not very easy with my arthritic knees!.

    45212 with some great sound accelerating away from Helpston Junction(20mph limit) on the outward journey Kings Cross to York, and passing Stamford, engine and coach, Wansford to Carnforth

    Having booked the Blackpool Steam Express a few days ago I’ve been rather disappointed to hear it’s been postponed to 10th May, not disappointed because of the postponement but rather hearing the news through a friend of mine last night and have yet to have heard of the reason from RTC themselves

    Received an email from them yesterday and decided to transfer to another trip. The justification was lack of bookings and operational issues, so take your pick as to which is the main reason.

    Isn't there quite a lot of 'pull back' from Blackpool and turning at Farington, I guess? All a bit messy.

    Possibly, possibly not. The basic timings were already on RTT, so last minute revisions notwithstanding, the principle was probably fine.

    I suspect that the offered £50 discount suggests the main reason for the postponement, perhaps 5 hours in Blackpool in mid March isn't universally appealing. Worth noting that the new date, 10th May was to have been a CME which the Blackpool train appears to have replaced.

    Luckily the steam comes on at York! Looks like the convoluted route is to pick up 86259 in Wembley yard.

    Is the Cheshireman still steam hauled tomorrow ? I can only see a 20 minute stop at Rugby ? Also its booked on the fast line out of Rugby for a considerable chunk.

    Still steam. Rugby - water stop on way out and steam off on return.
    There are engineering works on the Weedon line resulting in an amended timetable along the WCML south, so spare pathing allows the sustained ML running.

    The Cheshireman passing Leighton Buzzard this morning. A few minutes in the car and back home for breakfast!
