Notes :
(1) Train was booked to work through from Oxenhope but was unable to do so due to flood earlier damage which left no suitable loco to drag 45407 & the stock to Oxenhope. Postponed from 21/08 due to pathing constraints along the Aire Valley. Was originally booked for haulage with 71000 but this was not ready in time and 45407 substituted.
