popped over today for the big engine day, the class 37 was replaced by 50007 on its run due to battery problems but they are hopeful it will be ready for tonight when both are expected to top and tail ,other than that all looking good

Saturday and Sunday I'll be on duty at Loughborough all day and on the beerexs. Probably on the beerex tomorrow night as well.

I shall be on the beerex tomorrow night. Fish & Chips plus a pint for a fiver behind 55019 ticks the boxes for me!

Loughborough late turn tomorrow for me, then earlies at Rothley on Sunday. Sadly that rules out the beerex, but might get out for a ride tomorrow lunchtime before booking on at 1500!

I was there all day today and will be there tomorrow, can't do Sunday unfortunately.

To update the situation with the 37, it was "only" a flat battery and it was up and running in time to take over the 50's 3PM run. (i.e. the locos on the 1:40PM and 3PM departures from Loughborough and their return runs were swapped).
