20302 & 20311 working 2110 6Q23 Dollands Moor Sidings to Wembley Receptions 1-7 with 555016 & 555035, strangely the Friday schedules for the barrier return are on RTT but still no sign of the Wembley to Pelaw trip tomorrow

Great effort @BRX I definitely think the orange and yellow need some buffing up though to give a level playing field .....
