    DCE not looking good for steam I fear. Only 3 days where the forecast shows light showers, no other rain, and one of those is the day before the tour, by which time NR will have decided.

    Let's hope they can make some time up on the run to York. Could be achievable due to the number of planned pathing slots.

    It is. Saw the ECS at Finsbury. Diesel only at the rear. Wearing a White Rose headboard with Bill Monteith at the regulator.

    I'm delighted to confirm it is! I got a quick glance at the ECS passing the Thameslink train I was on. Class 47 on the back. Didn't see another one in train but again I didn't see it for long so may be wrong but Tornado definitely there.

    47815 failed on CME at Grayrigg. Pushed to Tebay by 57008 on the back, which will now run round and pilot to Carlisle. 115 late at Tebay and counting.

    I hope that they managed to keep the A/C running for the poor passengers.
