i decided to get an video instead of Pictues of the llandudno victorian extravaganza at Rugeley Trent Valley but it turned out to be something else, it wasn't class 67's? i think they is an loco change at Crewe

I managed to capture a picture from the video

i don't know the number of the EWS Class 90

You are correct in your thinking, the wires stop just past Crewe works,before the HSTs on the North Wales line all Holyheads up/down changed locos at
Crewe, real coaches then, even now it occurs on Saturdays with the pendolino

90021 went back on the rear of the ECS to Wembley where it was spare until last night when it worked 2116 Inverness/Aberdeen and Fort William sleeper as far as Edinburgh. The tour was very well loaded not many spare seats left.
