railtourinfo.co.uk has it as 67 both ways.

ah yes, had a feeling it was EWS locos, and of course they dont have spoons any more

RTC shifted from using WCRC to EWS this year, so I would think that 67s as mentioned is most likely.

darn - was hoping to see some duff thrash oh well - don't see 67s TOO often, and it's not everyday you see a black five and mk1s!
