    Seeing that you asked Neil I can tell you. Firstly there was a delay at Northallerton East as we had tripped a hotbox detector. Not unusual on a steam working but we had to examine the loco for Network Rail's peace of mind. Then there was a points failure at the south end of York Yard North so we had to set back to Skelton Junction and ended up being routed through Platform 3 at York. Pleased to report that there was nothing wrong with the loco, it was all part of a days work with steam operations.
