Nothing has headed east from Kettering since about 1981, when the last few miles of the Cambridge line was closed up to Twywell.

What will be used for stock on the test run ?

 

I’m at Loughborough for it

 

45212 shown on UK Steam and RTT running Toton-Oxenhope KWVR Jan 15th. Anyone know why? Presume it is something to do with Bahamas trips, possibly as a back up "just in case"?

 

Might be going for the March Gala early

 

It belongs to the K&WVR and part of the agreement with Ian Riley is for it to go home periodically.

I would assume the VT stock as was used for test runs with 4965 last year. The reason they had to hire in the stock for the polar express was because they didn't have the paperwork to carry passengers in their stock yet.

 

Ah yes, thanks, I had forgotten that. Another senior moment...…...
