    I've read elsewhere that the reason it's left the ELR is that it's owner has sold it.

    No idea who has bought it or where it's heading for.

    I never thought of that I suppose. Hope it finds a new home and is well looked after if that is the case.

    Suppose that subject to checks its allowed on NR Metals as long as there are no passengers.
    Not wagging a finger at anyone but fact remains there are a few others like it gently decomposing at , amongst other places, Carnforth.
    Hope its going to a good home...

    I would suggest that the diesel will go with the K1 and the 5s go on their own, the logical water saving plan, since only one 37 is required for standby duty.

    Seems fair enough. It would be a shame to see both moves being diesel dragged all the way to Craigendoran but understandable for water consumption and also pathing.

    Sorry Davo - nothing moving off York tomorrow. I understand that it was a move that was planned sometime last month for No.9 but it has now been deferred until at least the end of this month. At present the NRM is still in lockdown, with only very limited site access for outside interests. There will be no movements from there just yet. Tornado is staying where it is for now.
