    Unusual formation - 43+render+60103+support coach+43, presumably due to the 2 reversals at Ash and Foxhall Jn. I guess this formation is only possible due to the tender having a buckeye, allowing it to be coupled to the blunt end of a power car.

    Surely the LNER loco tenders had knuckle couplers that could be lowered so they could attach to non LNER / BR buckeye fitted stock? I suspect it has more to do with minimising crew member numbers on 60103. ( Basically a caretaker fireman to keep enough pressure to keep the lubricators working.)

    Cheers. Neil

    Seems a odd route direct through the logjam at Man Picc/Oxford Road to Victoria
    Wouldn’t going via Denton, Ashton Moss, and Brewery Jct be more reasonable?

    Not being an expert on main line routes, but does going the way it does mean it faces a different way for its transfer onto the ELR?

    It is a Bank Holiday though, slightly quieter,engineering works, crews who don't sign the route through Denton, there could be a number of reasons why it's going through Piccadilly.

    no it will still be pointing in the same direction as the current route/timings, this is the route taken by the Liverpool to Drax services.
    As mentioned earlier I forgot it will be Good Friday, so it could well go through centre of Manchester
