    No idea but it is meant to be a guest at the GCR'S winter gala though.

    I read a post on here somewhere that stated that leander was going somewhere else first, before the GCR, but cant find it now, read it just a couple of days ago.

    found it on the works, doh! its on its way to Ilford for tyre turning on the back of a low loader, although on here someone spotted it at J16 M6 at 7am, then presumably, on to the GCR.

    Hi Im a lineside photographer on the GCR i believe both Leander & 44767 are both due on GCR metals this week in prep for the WInter gala, but there was no exact date, but sounds like 5690 is close to arriving today / tomorrow then..... 5690 is due to stop for a few months....

    Cheers

    Could they now be delayed by the snow though?

    There is no way that from 7am this morning Leander could make Crewe-Ilford(have tyres turned) and arrive at GCR by today/tomorrow snow or no snow.

    Saw it at J21A of the M1 on Friday 8/1/10 at about 22:40, so obviously touched down at Quorn late that night. I've read elsewhere that the rods are off which I presume is consistent with having had its tyres turned.

    Leander will be based at the Great Central Railway for around three months.
