Seems to be an event this weekend, that should see 8 DB locos on display or on service. Looks like 92011 is heading there from Crewe tomorrow (Tuesday).. Talk of 66200/67005/67007. Does anyone know which 66s are visiting?

Many thanks. I understand 66026 with 92011 is to work from Crewe to Butterley this morning, picking up other locos at Toton.

A great event today despite the weather. It was very busy too (at least on the Mk3 rake). Excellent work from all concerned. 31108 and 45108 were stars of the show for me, but it was nice to get some winning 66's into the book too. All for only £18!

Yes i have to agree. Great event at a very reasonable price. Great job by all concerned with arranging and running.
