    Could we expect to see 4150 operating regular services in August, all being well?

    4150 won’t be given its “Gala Debut” at the Sunmer Event as we’ve got things planned for Autumn for that. I think the plan is to run it on the odd service here and there, but not roster it as such. Ie a very last minute change to the roster, which will probably be based initially on when fitting staff are available.

    It’s got some loaded test runs to come yet.

    4930, 7714 and 13268 in use tomorrow. The diesel turn is a class 50 (50033 was in use today).
    Next two weekends are the 1940s event and thus special fares.

    Is it too early to ask what is rostered for the 40s weekends yet?

    Well, the working timetable that was sent out a couple of weeks ago says 7714, 4930, 13268 and 4150(75069). D7018 on the diesel
    I think we can assume its probably the standard 4 rather than the prairie.
