What a tour it was! 410 and 417 sounding like they were in tandem up Abergavenny with 410 powering then 417 again and again, as they were struggling for adhesion, also 417 going poop didn't help things. But MY LORDZ, 410 pulling load 12 and dead 417 up Manchester Victoria bank!

Just been speaking to the Pathfinder bloke i know, he said that 410 was Flaming and Sparking like a bonfire on the Manchester & Shrewsbury banks and 417s ETH burst.

But other than it finishing up at Newport, then there was plenty of Thrash/Clag from 410 working itself, but pretty lucky to get let to Newport, because i was told it could have finished at Manchester but NR let it go to Crewe, then allowed to carry onto Newport.

So will that be the end of 417? or is it an easy problem to fix? i hope so. . .

417 is at OOC being fixed at the moment, and yes, 410 was like a fireworks display.

Got to admit I'm not a big fan of 37s but last night's run at the bank was unmissable. My god..

i bet there was plenty of this stupid 'My Lordz' bellowing, if that is 410s last run, what a run it must have been
