    If the last time is anything to go by as a guide, 7760 went via Camp Hill and the Cross City line and down the bank to Bromsgrove, Camp Hill being little used and the X city line being 4 track between Kings Norton & Longbridge means the stretch a Pannier would be mixing it with Voyagers is actually very short, course we'll only know for sure when the light engine times comes to light.

    Does anyone know if Lizzie will be on show in Didcot GWS? She is really a red King, after all......

    As a PS, it was a light-hearted remark (compliment!).

    Lizzie is my favourite non-GWR loco and I will definitely be chasing her round the country on Saturday!

    Peace and love to all :peace:

    I should think that's highly likely given the history.

    Great thanks for that. It will go past my house then and I should see the banker going the other way to meet it.

    Away from Tyseley on time, no pics till tonight though, partly because it's raining cats and dogs but chiefly because my chosen location is now overgrown too much.
