An update on WNXX today, 73202 has been released from St Leonards after exam and is now at Tonbridge, it's still in Southern livery but with GBRf branding

Would it be that much of a shock to find this may be one of the two going to swanage for the gala

Unlikely, the two at Eastleigh are so far lined up for that so long as the work is completed on time. 202 is looking rather weatherworn too - certainly for the last week it's spent it's time moving from Siding to Siding in Tonbridge Yard.

Here it is at work today on an Eastleigh to Hoo engineering run. Don't know if this is just a temporary thing, or whether the idea is to use 73s a bit for these regular trips.

73s have been the normal power for a couple of months or so. Don’t know if true but I was told they will be used through the summer.

119 looks the business. Wonder what, if any, heritage livery 202 could be repainted into? Gatwick Express/InterCity?
