  • The coaching stock move with 47580 mentioned yesterday has been put back to the 6th February currently, with other plans for 580s use next week which will be reported then.
  • 47500 had been re-railed during Thursday evening and then relocated to the siding which used to lead in to the Museum of Science and Industry which is no longer connected to the National Rail network, but is right by Ordsall Lane Junction where Wednesday's derailment occurred. It was possibly only relocated this morning rather than last night, Network Rail having posted to Twitter at midday that the loco had been moved.
    A good selection of photographs of 47500 with rescue cranes in position last night appears on this page of WNXX.com.
