    Yes I am an active volunteer
    Will 6233 be stabling at Carnforth during this weekends tour? Or will there be another location involved?

    Tour thread indicates it's saying on until Crewe on the way back, confirmed by RTT.

    Unless I’m wrong it was a no brainier for 6233 not to carry onto Crewe rather than come off at Hellifield.

    I wonder if 6233 will stay on but with the diesel piloting from Crewe as there does not seem to be any forward LE movement to Tyseley?

    I think that's a possibility as it is pathed as 75mph from Crewe and not 95mph.

    Or 6233 may remain at Crewe and continue to Southall another day, ready for its outing to Chester the following Saturday.

    The diesel that is taking the charter as far as Hellifield. It would need to move to Crewe.
