    Nah - it'll either be a fake-J94 or another which isn't a J94 either.

    Having looked up the details on the working timetable, it looks like it is both Austerities/Buckets/(look, they're steam engines, ok?) :)

    Saturday and Sunday also sees both out, but only one on public services.

    Monday is one of them, plus the Thumper, as previously stated.

    You may call them spades to go with your so-called buckets. We call them shovels on our locomotives.;)
