Can't find anything for the forthcoming tour but the last one seemed to be operated by either a DB class 66 or 67 according to this:

If it were to be steam hauled, it would be advertised as such and be priced at a higher level. (The photograph of a steam locomotive on the relevant page advertising the tour is for the off-train option to visit the Gloucester Warwickshire Railway.)

The rule of thumb with UK Railtours is that a 67 (and sometimes a 90 on significant electrified sections) will be used unless otherwise stated.
