    From The DPS
    We are extremely pleased to announce that D9015 Tulyar has undergone its first test runs at the GCR today.
    Initially 2 light engine runs from Loughborough to Leicester and return, alternating between Power Units.
    Tulyar was then coupled onto a rake of 9 coaches and pulled its first train since April 13th 1997.
    After a round trip alternating PU 538 and 417 the final round trip of the day was made on two engines.
    The loco performed admirably with only a small number of extremely minor snags presenting themselves.
    Further mileage accumulation is scheduled during June and we anticipate being able to release the loco for traffic on completion
