Something must be happening at Litchurch Lane on Thursday as 35018 is visiting Derby on Wednesday with a Light Locomotive coming in from SVR and 60007 arriving from Crewe both on Thursday.. That’s 3 heritage locomotives present at Litchurch Lane on the same day (thursday)
Unless I’m looking too much into it, my guess is that this is to do with The Greatest Gathering in August
