Hi everyone.
I may be wrong but does anybody know ifm57311 was used on a service into London today mid afternoon,,as my friend travelled down from Wigan and when she arrived at the terminus,,the loco was right against the front of the pendilino on platform 6.

Could it have been stabled there and the pendi just pulled up tight to it?
A bit strange and I was curious!

Thanks!
Dean

Hi Dean.....I have seen Thunderbirds 57s at Euston several times, I seem to recall a thread on this site about them some months ago. Cant remember why they are often there but they are.
Not much help I know but its not a rare sight.

Hi guys
I know that thunderbirds are a regular occurrence at Eustin, but what I was asking was did it haul in the service my friend was on? (see my initial post!)

Cheers guys!

Was your friends train late arriving at Euston? If not then I would say that PARKER was already there and the train just pulled up close.
