    I know it's a bit late but they were running early this morning, about 15 minutes on the approach to Chester.

    Yes I am an active volunteer
    Hence why I missed it coming into Chester.

    However, I did catch them later on going over the Roodee viaduct. Here's the link: http://youtu.be/n5QxpVCGgb0

    I'm looking forward to seeing a similar sight tomorrow afternoon, without the wires too as they storm up the GWR

    I have been looking at the times for tomorrow and the first water stop being "Port Talbot URL", could someone point me to where exactly this is and if it may be publicly accessible.

    Thanks

    In the past, engines have normally been watered on the up relief line directly opposite the station platform. However recently (eg 6024 on 1 May), watering has taken place a little further east, just beyond the end of the platform and the level crossing.
