    Given this is advertised to start at Shalford,can anyone say where it is actually coming from? Possibly ECS from Southall via Redhill and Gomshall?

    Any news yet? Has 44932 been repaired or has a replacement loco (hopefully another Black 5) taken over? The train ought to be plodding its way around North London at the moment...

    Light engine + ecs? Can't be both. Either it's a light engine or it isn't. Do you mean loco + support coach?

    Passed through Milton (just north of Cambridge) roughly on time. I was already wet from cycling there, so I didnt fancy sticking around to see if 60007 would come through.....
