    I think @Big Al meant Saturday 21st from King's Cross to York. 34028 must be on its limit for coal capacity, especially with the trundle through the wilds of Lincolnshire in both directions.

    Indeed. My hope was that perhaps there would have been a bit more power up front to alleviate what will be going on at the back but despite a servicing stop away from the OHLE it looks as though the plan will be to run to York without a tender coal top up.

    Having booked on this one for the new track I will review what I do about the return leg that, of course, will all be in the dark.
