The news last night was 20311 and 20314 had moved to York Thrall as 37402, 37407 and 37423 headed to Toton for tyre turning.
The RHTT was re-timed off Woodburn Junction an hour earlier than normal as it was due to run three times through Worksop and Retford. In the end by the time the pair had arrived at Woodburn Junction there was evidence of trouble at the mill as they say. The early departure was missed and a VSTP entered the system Wodburn to Worksop, where the train was finally terminated with 20314 shunted into Harry Needles depot switched off.
Another pair of Harry Needle's 20s induldge in a bit of shunting, moving ex ECML mark 4 stock presumably ensuring wheels / brakes etc don't rust up as the errant 20314 is pushed into Harry Needle's workshop lines.
As well as the 6, or 7 20s on site, the 47 was present, used as a generator for the mark 4 stock, an 01, and the two 08s had been boosted this week by the road arrival of 09002 and 08925 from Whitemoor. It's believed 08925 is just visible from the recently improved by tree felling view from Tesco car park.
