Description
A so called "light engine" move, this is anything but. We bring 69001 from EMD at Longport near Stoke on Trent to Tuebrook Sidings at Liverpool. This Type 5 Titan has been in for maintenance but is needed back at Tuebrook to bolster the fleet. Roger McVay takes us back to S-O-T station to change ends (there is no northbound connection) and then up to Kidsgrove where we go west to Crewe via Alsager. We sneak through the back road (Loop)
