I was waiting at Berwick in a prime location to see her crossing the royal border bridge, my Dad phoned to say he'd seen it flash through Chathill, and then... nothing. Found it parked at Berwick later with a seized box (under cab left side) jacked up and awaiting fitting of a new bearing. So thanks for your footage, at least I got to see it going.
Wow! How nostalgic! a real life, working Grand Central HST! Nice to see they are keeping those unreliable, poorly maintained and overhauled loco's going on the mainline, i'd of thought the only place for them in their poor condition would be on a heritage railway.
