    60009 seems to be progressing on the LE run. Might wander over to York Station later to see it in.

    An early call this morning as LNER A4 No.60009 'Union Of South Africa' hauls 'The Edinburgh Flyer' from York to Edinburgh.

    Picking up its stride after leaving York, 60009 is seen near Shipton.

    Completely clagless at Houndwood, temperatures into the low 20s. Significant assistance from the rear end here and at Drem; fire risk now becoming substantial? Clagless S.jpg
