Freight Eastleigh to Yeovil Pen Mill 4/2/19 (need help please)

[Bradley]

Does anyone know if the Freight ht train is running from Eastleigh to Yeovil Pen Mill tonight as it shows up saying it leaves Eastleigh at 20.43pm but does not show up that it has left Eastleigh or does not say it has been cancelled so I was wondering if anyone knows it is running tonight gets to Yeovil Pen Mill at 22.57pm.

This appears to have been a Balfour Beatty operated on track machine. According to TRUST it left Eastleigh at 2131 and arrived at Yeovil Pen Mill at 0023 on Tuesday 5th February.

Running as 6J86, and according to https://www.rail-record.co.uk/on-track-plant/
It was Colas tamper DR73931 (despite having a Balfour Beatty service code)

That presumably means that Balfour Beatty 'operated' the service with a bit of kit hired from Colas.

A Tamper is at YPM today.
Freight will be diverted via YPM, Honiton to Exeter from the 18th for 3 weeks as Whiteball Tunnel is closed.
I have been route learning to drive a few freight trains.
