Tbf I think it could be a class 2MT and still be enough. I feel certain it’s merely a headboard tomorrow. I believe it was planned to be 9/10...
Just to follow up I’ve just been told the plan will be to put Mayflower on the front of the diesel when it arrives at Crewe so it’ll be...
Possibly. Although given the rain we’ve had the last week or two the ground was still very dry Wednesday for Gresley so not sure much will change.
I mean volunteer loco crews wise you won’t find many turns that we struggle to cover. We’ve a good abundance of those! We used to have full 5 day,...

Has been trialled before, or a very similar style and it doesn’t work quite so well, particularly not for a line that doesn’t have that wow...
Ah right. Yeah GBRF are the ones running it. An effective English/Welsh version of the Royal Scotsman
Not quite sure why this is in the WCR Tours thread but….. These aren’t gauging test runs. These are testing for timings, staff training, etc. A...
Could be a fair bet on the 8F maybe? Although 0 headcode would suggest diesel
Wouldn’t matter either way as they all get timed at 60
