Boston Steel?

[Joseph.bevan96]

Hi,

Looking at realtime trains theres a booking at 15:28 for:

Boston Docks to Washwood Heath Met.Cammel

I assume this is Boston Steel which will no doubt be worked by a 47 or 56, is it actually coming via Nuneaton or is this jut a mistake?

Headcode is: 6E07

Regards
Joseph

That path isn't used at the moment. It goes via at Tamworth both ways.

6E07 is currently on its way towards Boston, booked via Tamworth as Matt says: 47749 doing the honours. Not sure why the return working (to the former LM Region) would ever run as 6Exx!

It doesn't - the return (loaded) train runs as 6M08, while the outward,
whether via Tamworth or Nuneaton, runs as 6E07.

But as Matt rightly points out, both trains have been routed via Tamworth
for some time now.
