There are a couple of extra trains running on Sunday to carry Boro fans to the derby game at Sunderland. They are Running to and from St. Peters. I also think there are extra St Peters stops in a couple of service trains. Anyone think they might have some fruity traction on the front? ;)

A couple of Thornaby Syphons on sets of Mark 1s. Bound to be.

They're in a Norther. Services so it'll be a train they have the safety case to operate.

It's also pathed as a 15x so i would not expect anything special

The Footex services will be 156s and 158s from the regular pool of Northern units in the North East.

you may have missed the humour there lads ;)

Hard to stick a Thornaby 37 on when the depot was knocked down a decade ago! (It is obviously going to be a 158 or a 156 x 2 )

I got the Thornaby suggestion was humour, although admittedly missed the whole lot was.
