87002 Mainline test run

[Phoenix]

Apparently the test run ran today succesfully no major problems encountered just one extra stop at crewe station to sort out a speedo fault and the run ran mostly on time so looks all good for royal soverign.
A big congrats to the ACLG for their hard work in bring such a fine loco back on to the mainline once again (and now we need a some railtours and crazxy workings ect)

Sounds good to me... I'm not hugely into electric locos, but I'll make an exception for 87002!
