    If correct, the first time two Scots hauling trains the same day for over 50 years? In the same region as well, astonishing.

    Change of plan for me on Tuesday, after looking at info. supplied it looks like 46100 and FS will pass each other about 14:05 at Ravensthorpe (Thornhill). It's a nice quiet unmanned station within walking distance from Maison Victor. That'll do nicely thank you.:)

    On the other hand, photo of one might get bowled by the other. That could be a first?

    Well No , it has happened before!,
    Some years ago now 48151 was returning north after working over the Central Wales the previous day and passed a southbound Black 5 (not sure which one) hauled train also headed for the Central Wales at Bayston Hill. Watching the 5 I totally missed the 8F !
    And don't forget Tangmere and Rood Ashton Hall passed just outside Worcester last year.

    Unfortunately I haven't got a camera. Mrs V and myself have travelled the world without a camera and I think I'm too old now to start photography.
    John Leyland has been to Ravensthorpe, I met him there with..........ahem........Frank, it's a nice spot for long shot video photography.

    I assume the schedule is incredibly slack, 1L off Crewe and then 10 early by Warrington?

    Was surprised she was early as there was a dangalino booked at 11.14, which was showing on time, the Scot came through around 11.11
