For many, this service was one of the motive power highlights of the summer of 1987.
Usually formed of a short rake of loco hauled MkI coaches vice Sprinter DMU with varied motive power.
The afternoon pair of services tended to be worked by a fresh loco.


PLEASE NOTE :  that locos may not have been reported on all legs of diagram shown below - see relevant Diary pages for exact details reported.
