    Just booked on this one, does anyone know how the stock movement will work. Will the dinners have a trip in cattle class or will us poor people go down the posh end :)

    Last time the dinners went into cattle class I think as that has a higher capacity

    A Britannia out of Liverpool Street - wow!

    I was stood on Bethnal Green station last week on business in the area, and the very steep climb out of Liverpool Street was clear to see. Will the train be banked out of the station much like Victoria, or will Oliver Cromwell go it alone?

    No banker.

    Steam always goes it alone up bank and good job too. I cant see a class 7 having any worries getting up there.

    I will be on Brentwood bank "listening to the music".

    ECS was about 5 minutes late into Liverpool Street so was a couple of minutes down passed Pudding Mill Lane heading for Norwich. Looking and sounding good though.

    No I do not currently volunteer
    About 3 mins late through Manningtree,a class 37 on rear,not in use, the driver was in the back cab.I guess its inclusion was inevitable when you consider splitting the train at Norwich and topping and tailing to Holt.

    70013 sounded as good as ever yesterday. Just for once standard class up front and the crack from the exhaust was amazing. About 2 mins early into Norwich without any great dramas. Don't know how return went as I was on a service train. Guess OK as no word on here.
