    GBRF confirms conversion of Class 56s to Class 69s

    Bagged my first ‘sighting’ of a class 69 today as 69006 trundled past me in Crawley this afternoon, with 73107 along for the ride as well... not sure if it’s the first time one has been along the Arun Valley Line or not? Ben

    Flying Scotsman- 17th March

    Saw 60103 passing Godstone station last night on it’s way back to London, with 47804 humming along at the rear. The former seemed to be steaming very nicely, whilst the latter didn’t seem to be doing anything other than ticking over. Ben
