Jumping forward on the photo uploads.

 

20th October 2020, Kettering sees preliminary loco's with pans up!. Thanks too local enthusiasts for texts, calls regarding notification. Great to see Joseph Bevan again, this time on our patch!

 

I only filmed initial workings of arrival and departure at Kettering station however an overview is below.

 

5q61 arrives into p1 Kettering station with DATS overhead line testing on MML between Kettering, Bedford and up too Corby.

The consist of 43066 leading south, 91128 with premiere Pans up on this section, 82115, a selection of Mk3s, 91122 and 43054.

The consist arrived from Rectory Total Sidings at 21:01

Scheduled departure was 21:04, however this was pushed back to 21:31 we believe due too low battery power for 91122.

The good news was around 21:25 the first live pan connection had taken place and by 21:31 the consist, now 1q12 was on their way south too Bedford, arriving 21:56 (scheduled 21:29).

 

Then 1q13, Bedford 22:05 (21:38), arriving Corby 22:58 (22:11).

 

Then 1q14, Corby 23:15 (22:22), arriving Kettering 23:29 (22.31), where the working headed directly back too Bedford South Junction arriving 23:53 (23:10).

 

There were a further couple of test runs before the return too Rectory Total Sidings, arriving back at base 03:39 (02:17)
