Barend, I think you'll be seeing a lot of her in the next few months as she'll be doing many of the trips, supported by 19D 2650. Class 24 3664 is being withdrawn for a while for repairs.

There's some good news on 15CA 2850. She underwent ultrasonic testing and it seems that her boiler is in better shape than originally thought.
