The Atlantic Coast Express - Sunday 7th April 2013

[visibleimagery]

Good afternoon all.

I just wondered if anyone had any more info on the ‘ACE’ that will be gracing the Southern line this coming Sunday.
Although times have now been posted, there is an issue regarding gauging problems for 30777, although it’s still on the rota.

With 34067 bringing up the rear from EXD to EXC, now that 777 isn’t running, they won’t let 067 do it herself, (we know what happened last time with the double header!!)
So will it be 067 on the front with a 66/67/47 etc on the rear??

Any info greatly appreciated.
Thanks all,

Just seen it. 34067 on rear with probably 57 xxx up-front for the return!
Boo-****in-hoo!!!
