70013 out of service
70013 has been taken out of service with a firebox problem.
I've heard suggestions that a of Riley Black 5 will be taking over its workings. Any truth in that ?

70013
According to uksteam.info 4871 is replacing 70013 from Paddington to Yeovil/Weymouth next saturday, and 5407 is on the Jacobite this week, replacing 62005.
Good job Ian Riley has two superbly looked after engines which seem to be helping out all around the country recently.

it does seem to be doing a lot of work at the moment
its replaced Tangmere a few times and done a lot more of GBIII than it was due to
I was planning to see tangmere on the bank holiday monday, then 70013 was due to replace it, now maybe another loco.
