Back, but in one piece?
Locomotive Services Limited's Class 90, 90001 "Royal Scot" arrives back into the former Platform 1 at Crewe with the first test run of a full rake of InterCity-liveried Mk3s and a DVT.
Looking in ex-works condition, the 90 and its rake definitely recreate the 90s feel (pun intended!).
The inbound path was 5T91 19:16 Rugby to Crewe Holding Sidings, although it started at Amington Junction after 90001 encountered issues there on the outward leg.
These issues led to 001 being pulled from the inaugural tour two days later and sister Skoda 002 stepping up to work the train.
Full consist:
90001 + 10416 11068 11070 11087 10411 11076 11098 82139
