    well as there is only 2 locos in the Crewe pool atm and 46233 can't go to north wales and 60009 can't go to scarborough. That opens the picture that the duchess will be on all Flyers.

    She looked good at Slattocks, Stunning at Ashton Moss, and "gone" at the Plaza even though I left Denton while they were still rolling up the hoses!

    Thanks Osprey and Sowerbylad.
    I didn't know that 46233 had done the northern section of the Calder Valley route from the Preston direction via Copy Pit but the section from Manchester to Todmorden and vice versa must be a first for a Duchess hauled train (not counting
    the E+C move 46233 made on 3rd June over the route).

    Is 60009 still banned from York to Scarborough? as i read elsewhere that this had been sorted out, otherwise it will be 46233 on all the flyers as 70013 is staying down south
