Hi Jane, Lizzie is still at TYS receiving some TLC. I think the lack of timings for her outing is due to NR having problems with the new time tabling computer.
Some TOC's websites such as Chiltern have notices saying that the system will be down all this weekend as NR try to fix the problem.

 

Many thanks Kevin will keep my eye's open and hopfully get a few pictures of her on the light movement.
all the best

Any up date on light movement yet please?

all the best

No update from me Jane. Sorry.

Just hope it is at the head of the train at Victoria circa 09.30 on Thursday morning. So I can get my first UK ride behind an LMR pacific! Yes, after all these years I've taken the plunge.

But still no timings for the LE movement, or the actual train itself.

 

Fear not Bryan, after the runs I've had behind her this year, I think you are in for a real treat. And don't forget I'm a disciple of all things Brunswick Green with lots of copper and brass!!!!

 

It's just a big King isn't it...? :behindsofa:

 

Most certainly a momentous occasion. Had to go to a seance last night and ask OVS if it was OK for me to do this. LOL. It threw him to start with, "How many cylinders did you say it's got, (shock)?", was his first response!

Have to say it was the footage at various locations from the Britannia Banker posted here on Nat Pres that decided me. Looks to be a fine steam locomotive. And also, I did enjoy a rather nice run round Kent a week or too back behind the Black 5.

 

Only not as fast, not as powerful, not as good looking....eep:

 

Hehehe! I guess we should give the LMS some credit... They did take ex GWR Mr Stanier on board! eep:

 

i have been behind her a couple of times and she went very well both time i sure you will all have a great day.and she will not leave you wanting.

 

It is due to move today.

It could be to turn it - is 6201 too big for the Tyseley turntable? Though I'm surprised it is in gauge for the North Warks!

 

big problems with points at didcot buses now layed on will this loco still move on this route or will it now go via northampton.?
