    Getting up this morning I did wonder whether to bother with this working given the early start needed. Some overnight drizzle was still with us but I had a niggling feeling that fewer LSL ecs workings are piloted than those that aren't, and RTT already said 'worked by 46100'.
    The failure to leave Crewe on time raised some doubts but nothing else was planned this morning. Eventually the train started it's journey and the light was improving with the sun even trying to appear as the Scot passed with the Chairman's train between Colwich and Rugeley.

    If I had known the diesel wasn't on the front I might have turned out to see this through Headstone Lane. Ah well, never mind.

    Yesterday morning the RTT schedule said 'worked by 46100' & didn't mention the diesel at the rear, I'd look there.

    If anyone cares, the outing today is the Christmas Do for Hosking Partners LLP (his investment company). I'm on the Midland Pullman at the moment and asked the staff what it was about.

    If this three day outing has been 46100's swansong then this afternoons brisk run up the WCML marked the end of an era in fine style. A five minute early departure from Rugby had grown to 18 mins by Rugeley Trent Valley with the pathing stop at Brinklow being missed out, and that grew to 21 minutes ( RTT ) by Colwich.
    Adorned with the Irish Mail headboard and a Nottingham (16A) shed plate (1959 to withdrawal in 1962) the passage through Rugeley on this dank late afternoon was a spectacle worth seeing. Sadly a still can't record the noise !. Perhaps someone else was there and can share a video.

    edit :- forgot to add that when I returned to my car I notice the mileage read exactly 71000 - end of one era and the start of another ???

    46100 heading back to Crewe, going full pelt through Tamworth just ahead of sunset. Nice surprise with The Irish Mail headboard too!

    Well in that case not sure what’s going to haul the Edinburgh job!

    45407 is in Edinburgh, comes back Xmas Eve.
    45212 at Wensleydale, goes to NY Eve.

    44871…Booked for the Xmas White Rose on the 18th December to York, diesel on the whole return…..So one could only deduce from that it was going to stay for the Edinburgh job…..

    Looks like the Edinburgh is steam hauled both ways. There's also a 60mph move from Holgate sidings to Carnforth the following day, which would make sense if 44871 is going along. No steam for Polar Expresses for the last few days?
