    Strange as the 31 couldn't be used at the gala due to needing tyre turning, I guess this and the appearance on those Pickering-Goathland trains during the line blockage were deemed ok due to ad hoc usage.

    That’s why they call it the frozen north …

    It's 34º in north-east Scotland. Not quite as frozen as you might think...;)

    I believe it needs new tyres, rather than simply reprofiling of the existing ones. It can be used if they're absolutely desperate though.

    Serves you right for being down there. It's a pleasant 26°in deepest Devon. Even better when in the sea.
