I can't recall an actual Northfleet path but there was one in for Grain Foster Yeoman a couple of weeks back, could that be the same one? Interestingly 60055 was back in action today and worked 0945 0Z20 Toton to Crewe Basford Hall SSM and then 1359 6Z20 to Willesden hauling what looks like a rake of 10 unusual, to me at least, wagons, coincidentally the Grain FY schedule has reappeared for tuesday, is that 1+1=2 or 1+1=3 I wonder?

It'll be a novelty for you if it does run, daylight!!
60055 ran back home today as 1130 0Z60 Willesden to Toton, the wagons it hauled yesterday are reported to be (ex)Freightliner flats with spoil/aggregate boxes for NR engineering work over the Xmas period

A rather convoluted arrival for 6X61 via Kew, Clapham Jct and Kensington, I didn't ever have anything to do with Railvac type equipment so I assume it required turning for Willesden and the task it's needed for?
Looks as though 60055 will be tucked up with 60029 until saturday evening when RTT are currently showing a schedule for West Hampstead North Jct along with a return to Willesden on monday morning, another schedule showing at this time is for Willesden - Eastleigh - Millbrook- Willesden on tuesday

One of our well informed fellow contributors said a while back that 091 was due an exam, I can only assume that DCR have chosen to put it in 'suspended animation' while not so many locos are required, it would seem that the same has been done with 60028. I did suffer a slight heart problem today seeing a picture of 56091 on Flickr, prepare yourself and have a look ......
