    Perhaps Omaha was due on the 1330 yesterday but was pulled?

    Is that due to the 15mph slack at the bottom of the climb?

    Very most
    Most likely yes. Eric Treacy was the same on the earlier service.

    We are load 6, 37 there to provide assistance if needed and as far as I am aware isn’t doing much.

    Also being fuelled by diesel as opposed to rapeseed - diesel powered steam engines in 2026? Who would have thought!

    No the 9F was always scheduled to run that service, she then transfers to the diner service rest of the week (which doesn’t run on a Monday) and thus Omaha has filled the gap today on the 13:30.

    If you ask me, Tornado should stay in BR green and Scotsman should be repainted apple green, complete with single chimney...but that's just a personal view, of course. ;)

    A pretty good run out all Things considered for Omaha on the ex13:30 from Grosmont.

    Ableit from a slight bit of jerking from Levisham to Pickering things went well and it didn’t appear as if the 37 was having to provide much assistance as stated earlier. Pax numbers again appeared largely healthy on all services.

    If the timetable is correct, wait for a big bang this Saturday around Darnholme, the 2G46 leaves Goathland for Grosmont at 15.12, three minutes before the 2P11 is due to arrive at 15.15. I'm sure the token system won't allow that.
