Does anyone know where the MMT's tend to work these days and if they're still stabled at Basingstoke, Darlington, Derby, Horsham, Paddock Wood, Retford, Romford and Wakefield? From the looks of Youtube they seem fairly active, but you don't really hear much about them any more.

Does anyone have a contact e-mail or know Peter. I can't seem to find a way to contact him and would like to ask about permissions.

It unlikely 002 will make an appearance on the Wrexham-Bidston line. TfW have very close control of the project and will not want a prototype making the 230's debut. It's more likely there will be some sort of photo opportunity with a fully completed 230 and Ken Skates before the first TfW...

Noticed there was supposed to be a movement from Lobg Marston to Canton today, it was booked as 15X, but seemed an unusual move to me. It was cancelled due to a fault with the unit.

How did you find the regular path? I've been checked RTT for a while, not a lot seems to be coming out of Long Marston or Honeyborne North junction.
