I would guess so, depending on if the SRPS rake comes on stream too, after the CDL fitting at the Caley works which is underway at the moment. Some have already been done at Hamilton I believe. Also worth remembering the Lakelanders won't be able...

Without disagreeing regards 70000, I'm hoping/looking forward to 35027 getting a chance to take on the Cumbrian Mountaineer challenge. Although there's also appeal in the possibility 5029 and 6024 get chance to redeem themselves from historically...

I inadvertently touched a bit of a nerve with my comment about the chap wandering about alongside SNG and agree with most of what has been said. I chose the location as, I like the angle, the close up view and the sun was shining on that side of...

A superb show from 45407 with very little rear end assistance as the Five tackled the long climb to Bibbington Summit. For the return leg I witnessed an unassisted climb through Tunstead Quarry with 45407 taking the whole consist up the 1/90 to...

45407 seen at Holme Chapel before shutting off coasting along then opening up again before finally coming to a halt just short of the Tunnel, apparently due to lambs on the line then after a short while setting off again. [MEDIA]
