    Thought I had stumbled on an unannounced LE move through Taplow today. RTT listed a WCR move from Southall to Bristol but it turned out to be a Pullman consist with top and tailed 47's, absolutely flying through on the main. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the info. They probably were 57's. Couldn't get a good view from where I was and they were flying.

    I believe it's DCR, AFAIK they are the only TOC to operate 31s on the main line?

    70000 and support coach are due to run Swanage to Stewarts Lane today - RTT has it as a diesel loco trailing 1060 tons(!) timed at 45mph max. I know steam always shows as diesel, but the load and max speed seem odd. Also noticed that a freight is due at platform 3 at Clapham Junction at 1518, when 70000 is booked at the same platform from 1516 to 1520!

    Light engine / E+C moves are usually timed for 45mph, even when towed behind a DL. The trailing load figure is surprisingly high, but I guess it's to make the timetabling software give it lots of acceleration / braking time.
