Locked now but fairly recent. There are plenty of examples of 100+ mile ECS movements.

The Sundays only 09:27 Virgin Voyager move from Central Rivers to Holyhead would be a candidate - just over 150 miles.
That's not mentioned in the other thread.

Chiltern has a regular Monday to Friday move from Birmingham Moor Street to Wembley LMD Via Marylebone.

As posted on the previous thread about this, LM had (or possibly still have) a booked empties move from Crewe-Northampton at 0415 - around 100ish miles. I believe it's only tuesday to friday.

Thinking about it, Virgin often drag out the Pretendolino set from Wembley and take it to Crewe and back with a Skoda on the front. It runs (as far as I am aware, with a 5Zsomething headcode), so it's an empties move. That must be a contender.
