Glasgow Central

Anyone know what was going on at platform 4 this morning about 8:00am at Central?

A silver painted 67 loco with what looked like an old GNER loco at the other end (an 82?) along with three burgundy passenger carriages. The carriages had no markings other than "www.dbschekner.co.uk".

DB Schenker (ex EWS) "company train" - loco is 67029, the other end is a Mk III DVT (driving trailer). No idea what it is up to, probably some sort of corporate "jolly".

Should be preparing to work this:

1Z05 GLASGOW C 08:28 BESCOT DS 13:57

Then goes onto Dagenham Dock & Paddington tomorrow. Then returns ECS to Toton.

Isn't it good to see that DBS can still afford this crucial part of their porfolio.

They might be making money by hiring it out to somebody else

There were a couple of folk on board looking like they were getting served something, it was causing some interest with a couple of station staff taking pictures of it. Thanks for the replies.
