    I think it moves to Southall next week. I'm told it will do a test run to Didcot at night.

    If you are talking about Network Rail requirements concerning, for example, OTMR, then wouldn't NR be the body that had a view?

    It was in steam yesterday afternoon, but no idea if that means any more testing is imminent.

    Nice to see. Thought of a bit of trivia although I'm definitely not the first to do so.

    We are about to witness two steam locomotives that are going to operate on the main line that look more or less the same and that differ only by one digit - i.e. 34028 and 35028. Yes I know about 35018 (with the funny cab numerals) and 35028, plus other coincidences of number like 61306 and 60163, but there is something nice and tidy about Eddystone and Clan Line. Best wishes to Southern Locomotives Ltd.
