75mph path and no support coach - seems more likely to be diesel locos?

 

It doesn’t have a coach available! Its own one is marooned in Scotland with bad flats, and WCR have taken theirs back.

 

Harold, I think @Rander is referring to 60103 in that statement, not 60163.

60163 is making its way light engine from Wansford to Derby courtesy of DB.

60103 will need to make its way from Kidderminster to Wellingborough prior to taking the Belmond Pullman to Derby.

The path referred to in an earlier post from Kidderminster to Derby will likely be a diesel of sorts.

 

Oh my bad!

Yeah the move from the SVR is a convoy of diesels! Sorry

 

60103 Flying Scotsman isn't going from Kidderminster to Wellingborough, its going to GG at Derby on display all day Friday, then going to Wellingborough Saturday morning before GG opens at 10am, then back into GG in the afternoon

 

Thank you for the correction, appreciated

 

Interesting, the profit centre code 53790401 is NR / DBC Breakdown train.

Cheers, Neil
