Hi, please could I ask which Blue 68's are visible next to the running lines at Leicester. I noted 68025 as closest to the station, followed by barrier vehicles and what my eyes think are 68017 and 68026. Can someone confirm or deny these two for me please? Thanks!

Might be a slight too far from what can be achieved here, but I was intending on seeing 0Z46 56045, however that’s been rerouted and has made it to Lincoln. It’s original destination was Rectory Jn, does anyone know whether this is still the case and if so, how and when it’s going to get there now.

Currently approaching Nottingham, where it will presumably reverse.
