    Something steamy on Monday 18th from NRM to Steamtown?

    https://live.rail-record.co.uk/train.php/?c=U58367&d=2025-08-18

    I thought they were fairly ‘steamless’ at the moment. Strategic Reserve?

    All the paths are in for moves from Carnforth to the NRM on Friday and the tour on Saturday, using the generic 715 tonnes/60mph steam timings with appropriate water stops. RTC still saying steam from Hellifield, times are 60mph throughout indicating no loco change en route.

    5Z42 on Saturday (not Friday) was put in the system on 05/07.

    5Z45 on Friday is for the Northern Belle (and timed at 95mph).

    I read somewhere it had been moved to the NYMR, but I’m sceptical, unless the bogie repairs were already complete, or it’s gone by road?
