Dartmouth Arrow

Post by mow »

I had a brief look at the Past time Rail site, The Dartford Arrow is Diesel hauled at BTM this morning. I had thought it was Western Champion, but haven't found the link to double check.

I don't think it's D1015, I think it's first railtour following it's overhaul is 'The Limited'.

I concur.
I believe D1015'S first run with its "new" engine will be in October sharing the Bristol Penzance trip with THE KING[different legs].
I believe this will be with a load of nine carriages only, which was a requirement of D1015'S owners as they did not want to overwork its one new engine on its running in trip.
