70013 'Oliver Cromwell' on the Great Central Railway - 10/06/2017

After around 5 months out of service due to the superheater elements being refitted ready for mainline running, 70013 'Oliver Cromwell' had a steam test which was confirmed as successful and to allow it to have some test runs, the loco was used on service trains on Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th June 2017. This video shows 70013 on shed, preparing for the first train, departing with the 1000 from Loughborough, between Woodthorpe and Quorn, at Quorn and departing Rothley. Also featured in the video is 33 D6535 and 78018 along the line.
