So, with the benefit of a few hours of sleep - my impressions of yesterday. Picking up at Nuneaton, we left about 50 down after a points failure...
Just arriving into Stafford, about 4 hours late. This is where we say goodbye to the train so we can carry on by coach...
37240 has just come off the rear, running round to pilot the castle
Just been recoded to 1Z18 again, so RTT might update now!
We're just pulling into Crewe, but they appear to have stuck our TD code as 1Z12 when we came out of the signalling black hole. 1Z18 appears to...
And stopped again at Acton Grange. I'm assuming for a pilotman
And we're off!

Not yet. We're at Warrington and off the train, but no clue about how we move forward.
Apparently we're only going forward to Warrington, but at least we'll be able to stretch legs there
Just shy of 2 hours stationary, but we're on the move again
I don't know what has caused said fire - apparently a different steam train earlier, but have any others been up the WCML today? John
Being held at Huyton apparently due to a lineside fire between Winsford and Acton Bridge causing signalling issues. John
From the rear coach I can certainly attest that 37420 is doing its fair share! John
