    I suppose with three tours coming up over the next few days in the North West it takes a bit of pressure off Tangmere if 44871 does come back.

    Evening everyone,

    I take it then that Friday's working from Southall to York NRM won't be a runner?.
    The only other steam loco showing as being at WCR Southall today was 76017.

    Just seen at Barton Hill, going along lovely, 47 on the back doing nothing at all. Proper job :) Fingers crossed for similar on the return!

    Onboard update . We are at present stopped at Seamer, there is a failed unit in our platform at Scarborough and we cannot use any other. Fitter is on his way from York.Plan is to put passengers onto two TP service trains into Scarborough.

    Any ideas if it'll be the 47 leading back or 44871?
