I was talking to a guard and she said that they were going to run an 800 alongside the Scotsman at the same speed to block it from trespassers. Any thoughts?
Very well said. The positioning of some stalls was very bad. You could only fit 2 people at a squeeze past the loco. How are you meant to photograph that?
It is actually 90044 but that's even better because it's in two tone grey :) 20189 and 20205 on site as well as 56049 and 92038! Would recommend crewe station during the evening if you want a sneak peak. If your taking a sneak peak make sure you sneak before you peak.
New lineup: Sadly no 60, no 40 and 1 less 47. but the 1 less 47 gets replaced by a 37 ;)

The only thing that comes with a carriage is the TPE 68, 121, 221 and 390. And if you want to count a departmental as a carriage then the 2 NR 73s will have one too ;)
Can anybody confirm that this will be the Flying Scotsman (60103) off to get some water at Eastleigh? http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U10584/2019/06/01/advanced
I have heard that the new 442 services on Sunday are now "cancelled" because of a door safety failure on the units. Apparently there are no short formations planed so these trains wont run! https://twitter.com/PaulCliftonBBC
