    Perhaps it's something to do with the terrible squeaking noise she was making recently when being worked hard?

    Just noticed on uk steam movements that 71000 is moving from Nene Valley to Bury this Monday 17th Oct.,anyone know if it's being hauled by a diesel as it shows D+E+C? on the timing sheet, yet steam hauled NVR -Bury above the actual times, and there is a stop at Toton TMD.Any info would be gratefully received.
    Many thanks Wardy.

    Although 71000 is normally towed by a diesel on such moves. I now understand that there won't be a diesel on Monday.
