Mule on the mainline ....

Seems that Vinny has been so busy of late that there is a dire
shortage of locos ....
Best dig a mule then to ease the load ...
The DTG must be rubbing their hands as D1015 "Western Champion"
takes up the slack working the Wellingborough-Mountsorrel
Aggregate trains with occasional extra curricular activity such
as the the two trips made to Scunthorpe on the 5th and 6th
November.
Nice work IF you can get it :thumbs: :thumbs:

Nope Kev no video ...
just the pleasing inner warmth of some vintage traction getting
some mainline action rather than just dragging a load of anoraks
on a days jolly

Neither do i ...hence why i stuck it in here ...Just gladdened
the heart to see something dragged out of retirement to work on
the mainline again,
A bit like the RAF dragging Vulcans out of retirement at the
start of the Falklands :smilewide:

Isn't putting a donkey on a railway a bit dangerous?

Putting a Donkey on the railway is fine Lucy ....
However putting your ASS on the line is often fraught with
issues :eek:
