    Almost certainly 57307 towing 390119 back to Crewe.
    RTT mentions a run around at Derby and if you look at Crewe on RTT around its arrival time there is a light engine move to Gresty Bridge followed by an ecs move to Edge Hill from the same platform that 5Z07 arrives..

    Not the first time a Class E has masqueraded as ecs!

    Driver to fireman: "One lamp in the middle and one above the right hand buffer." RH and LH is looking forward though.

    It’s probably why we now say fireman’s or driver’s side but that could be confusing if a GW engine is involved!

    71000 seen at Chester North & South Junctions during its reversal following its first mainline test run from Crewe this morning.
    Note the lack of nameplates, lining and BR tender transfer. Also the boiler only appears to have partially cleaned. Unlikely to see it in this state for long.
