The 1Z07 Absent Shunter railtour started out at Newcastle earlier this morning. It was supposed to have had 47749 hauling the first leg to Crewe but 66762 had to be substituted due to failure of the 47. Here, 86101 'Sir William A Stanier' brings the second leg past Ashton Hill south of Roade on the WCML. The 86 took the train to Euston where 66723 'Chinook' took the final leg to Basingstoke.
