It looks like there are several moves planned next week to get machines to the show at Long Marston. They may not be as big as last year's "mega train" and one of the Rugby moves may possibly be some locos...

Monday 16th

- 0810 Rugby depot - Long Marston

- 0854 Derby RTC - Long Marston

Tuesday 17th

- 1023 - Rugby depot - Long Marston

- 1130 - Trent Sidings - Long Marston

There may be more to add to this list over the coming days, so it will be worth keeping an eye on the Long Marston schedules (16th / 17th).

Looks like the move from Derby will include "Mentor", a PLPR coach and maybe some others.

Thanks all for the notes so far.

The move from Washwood Heath today should involve locos 37219 & 60087.

A new move has cropped up starting in Banbury - DR73911 perhaps?

Dan Adkins

Dan Adkins

It was DR73911. DR73118 and DR77905 have also made their way down. DR80302 is also on its way. There is a path in from Kings Norton, but as of yet, nothing has moved in it

Something went from Kings Norton in the end - assuming an MPV, apologies for not being able to provide specific details on this or the above move. Colas locos have now also arrived though.
