    47324 is at MRC, Butterley, not sure when it is due back?

    80080 is still in service at ELR, 80098 out of ticket at Butterley.

    44871/45407 could still be on Jacobite duties looking at UK Steam.

    Well we know a certain engine is going to be doing her trials at the ELR, we know there's a press conference about her on Friday, and 60103 is being booked for tours according to UKSteam. Who knows............

    As it stands an the minute. The line up will be as follows. 71000, 80080, 49395, 132, 32 and 1370. There is another guest planned but it is not my place to reveal that. There will be the usual morning freight run pasts at Burrs, a nightshoot, 132,32 will in the main be running the Ramsbottom Shuttles and 1370 will act as station pilot with the larger loco's in charge of the mainline service. It is anticipated that 132 & 32 will do at least a trip to Rawtenstall and back with 1370 assisting as far as Ramsbottom.
    Hope that helps.

    On NUELR forum that the omission of 45231 is a mistake and that it will be at the ELR until February 2012 - from a source inside the railway
