Binnenkort zal de rest van de bestikkering worden aangebracht, maar omdat EETC de loc morgen nodig heeft voor 1 van de skitreinen is hij vandaag zo de baan op gestuurd.

 

Op 19 februari 2015 mocht de loc de baan op. Eerst als losse loc naar Hilversum en 's middags met 12 rijtuigen naar Apeldoorn. Op de foto komt de EETC 1621 langs Terschuur onderweg naar Watergraafsmeer. De loc is voorzien van een stikker van Jacko Fijn, die de loc op de baan zal houden.

Beneath the thickening clouds, the 5M50 Carnforth-Hellifield-Blackburn-Carnforth West Coast Railway Company loaded test train finally crosses Whalley viaduct at 5.15pm on Thursday 17th August 2017. One could argue that the Southern Railway 'Merchant Navy' Pacific 35018 'British India Line' looks vaguely at home on this structure, posing a remarkable resemblance to some viaducts crossing the Hampshire watercress beds on the Waterloo-Salisbury line. The likeness ends there though, and perhaps Oliver V. S. Bulleid CBE could well be turning in his grave - for he left Bath to see out his final three years in Malta, after his beloved Pacifics had been withdrawn by B.R!
