Couldn’t find a general thread for the ELR and have a quick question.

Does anyone know which Diesel is likely to be working this Sunday please?

Great thank you. I was not aware of this site and was using the main one to no avail.

There is, but that's only for the steam loco(s). It has a link to the Diesel Group's website and their own roster, which is what I linked the OP to in post #2

An updated timetable for the Saturday of the gala has been posted on Facebook.

More 37 thrash, by popular demand!

However, I think I might switch my plans and go on Sunday to get some runs from the 20 too.
