    Anyone out to see 60009 on her two trips from Linlithgow round to Dunfermline, over to Stirling and back to Lithgy?

    I have been out in the rain twice today to watch her go through Dalgety Bay. Looked like a full train on both occasions and she was going well on the climb from Inverkeithing. There must have been about 40 to 50 people at the station this afternoon to watch it go through.

    I saw her at Stirling, the platform was crowded when she stopped and everybody got off. Looked about the same number of people that went for a ride behind 61994 in April.
