    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.

    'Bucket' - a childish expression adopted by kids down south to describe locos that they couldn't find to underline in their ABC's.:)

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

    Never heard of it in all my 70 years, and I’ve worked my share of them in the past.

    I see Hastings was out over the weekend, annoyingly I was at the West Somerset gala so I missed her. Does anyone know if she’s due to be out again this coming weekend? Would like to have a ride behind her at some point

    Not this weekend. Looks like the 108 on Saturday, and the Thumper on Sunday, but don't quote me on that....
