Just a heads up the craven stock at northfields dt will be moved too eailing common dt on Thursday late afternoon early evening And about time too. The whole unit has undergone extensive work over the past few years, just needs a bit of fine tuning for a CTC to be issued. I'm happy

CTC must have been issued then as it didn't have one yesterday morning! A dispensation can be applied for non passenger stock moves or a CTC for one day, been done before for this Unit but in saying all this I really hope they have a full years CTC.

Can some one tell us what a CTC is please ? Certificate of Technical Conformance or an MOT. Providing the Unit conforms to acceptable safety standards (not all modern) it is given a CTC to prove it's fitness to run in passenger service. Cravens Heritage Trains owners of the Unit purchased the 3 cars in 1995. When the Unit operated the last Epping - Ongar shuttle it went back to Hainault Dt. where it was then 'stopped'. When CHT operated it in passenger service at Easter 95' the Unit was given a 2 day CTC in order for a short test run and the main railtour, the one day CTC's were issued for the next few short railtours but eventually CHT had proven the reliability of the Unit and there professionalism in dealing with the teccy side of things to the Rolling Stock Engineer who subsequently issued a 3 year CTC.
