RE: STP Working From York NRM This Thursday (06-03-14)

[techno-phobe]

Hi everybody,

I'm not sure if the Allocations, Diagrams & Timetables area is the right place to post this and if not I apologise in advance.


Does anybody know what engines are going to be on the STP working that's showing on RTT as the 09:50 - 5Z60 - from York N.R.M. to Southall Wcr this coming Thursday (06-03-14) ?


I know STP's may or may not run like any other freight but as it's coming from the York NRM I wondered if it'll be something worth photoing as I'm hopefully working in Huntingdon that day


Thanks in advance to everyone

Possibly 60007? It was due to go to the NNR this week, and then on to Southall next week, but - as per http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=97422 - the NNR visit is no longer happening.

Thanks theblackwatch, I wasn't sure if this was the right place to ask

Sounds like whatever it is and if it runs then I'll be taking a late lunch to see if I can snap a pic or two of the working !

The Wednesday run from York to NNR is cancelled, as is the run from NNR - Southall - booked Thursday 13/03/14.

However the run from York - Southall on Thursday (06/03/14) is scheduled to run. Times: http://www.uksteam.info/tours/t14/t0306q.htm

Thanks for the replies guys and also the little gem about www.uksteam.info too

Wasn't sure what it would be if it ran as RTT shows it as a diesel locomotive but it's good to find another resource where I can get timings from. Just got to see if I can take a very late lunch by the looks of it and hope it runs on time !

So imagine my double-take just now as I was looking down the platform at West Hampstead Thameslink for my 17:18 to St Albans when I saw 60007 Steam over the bridge pulling a single coach.
A nice surprise to an otherwise un-eventful commute.

I managed to catch it chuffing through Huntingdon this afternoon when I went out on a late, late lunch !
