    Possibly an RTT glitch, but appears to an hour late leaving Hellifield?

    Here's my video of 34028 Eddystone hauling Days 1 & 2 of The Great Britain XVIII to Penzance over the South Devon Banks. I filmed Eddystone at Whiteball and Rattery Banks on Day 1. Day 2 I filmed at The Royal Albert Bridge, Dainton Bank, Pugham Farm and Fordgate. I hope you enjoy it.

    I wondered why Tangmere would get a red signal just beyond Horton rather than the start of the single line section across Ribblehead Viaduct. The preceding GBRF train (of poor quality) graffiti wagons was on the viaduct before I switched back to the Horton webcam.

    34067 seen from opposite Blea Moor Signal Box crossing Ribblehead Viaduct and onto Blea Moor followed by a widescreen view, unfortunately the Arcow to Doncaster stone train was ticking over in the loop which didn't help sound wise.

    Well, at least it was on the train and did the leg it was booked for. But by all accounts it was a day of dual haulage.

    In another context we sometimes might joke (rather unkindly) about someone not being allowed out without their carer. It definitely applies to Tangmere. I think we should rename its FTR exam as a FTL - fitness to limp.

    With the amount of problems Tangmere seems to have I wonder if when it goes out of ticket, if all the CDL issues are sorted at that point and the rest of the 10A steam fleet operational. If Tangmere will be pushed to the back of the overhaul queue.

    But if Lizzie is back in operation by the point Tangmere goes out of ticket, there will be less need for Tangmere. Also there is Duchess of Sutherland which eventually should return to traffic.

    Whilst they I assume have some bods from SLL on site for a few days they ask them for advice and to take a look at her.
