We have now been advised of the provisional plan for 55 022 at the consecutive ‘Scottish Branch Line’ Gala weekends at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. The event features some great steam locos as well as 26 038 and 37 264 representing the Diesels alongside ‘RSG’ which will run as 55 007 ‘Pinza’. Details of the event can be found at http://www.nymr.co.uk/special-events/scottish-branch-line-gala/ and a full timetable without rostered locos at this stage can be found here http://www.nymr.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Scottish-Branch-Line-Gala-May-2016-v3.pdf
We look forward to seeing many fans of the Deltics travelling behind 22, as these are the first passenger trains in England to be hauled by 55 022 since July 2013!!
