| 60009 (1) | Chester - Huddersfield - Doncaster |
| ????? (2) | Doncaster - Cleethorpes |
Notes :
(1) 47826 on rear.
(2) Reported as 47804 & 47826 top-n-tail but which was leading was not confirmed
(that 47826 was on the rear from Chester would suggest 47804 replaced 60009 and,
thus, led?).
(3) Route & loco confirmation required - seen on-time (11.09 arrival) at
Huddersfield on the outward leg hauled by 60009.
