    The Duchess passing the site of Lifford station: http://daviddepperphotography.zenfolio.com/p83391564#h7d83abd0

    Appears she was held to time then slightly late around Landor St, fortunate I went for a side on view seeing from others she had that headboard on.

    Just heard a chime whistle on the ECML but cannot find out any info apart from a path for 5Z40 at the appointed hour. Anybody know what it was? (Southall-Barrow Hill)

    Perhaps in time for some further North.

    Edit: Looks like it was probably Tornado heading North for Driver experience days next week.
