Hi all,

I was just out on-site at work near Dean Lane (Manchester Metrolink extension to Oldham and Rochdale) setting out some bolt holes on an OLE base, when a DBS 67 rolled passed with a two-tone green 47 and about 9 Mk1 coaches in tow...it was heading in the Victoria direction. I had a look on www.railtourinfo.co.uk but there's no mention of it, so I'm guessing it was an ECS...?

Any ideas? :)

Cheers,
