Nice video, but it's a bit of a strange route for the ECS workings to take - given Arlesey is north of Hitchin and not south of it. You sure those workings weren't to and from Nene Sidings?
Thanks for the comment mate. The ECS is correct, it's a daily (well, weekdays) movement to work a Hitchin to King's Cross peak hour turn. However it does not reverse at Hitchin (don't think it can), nor does it go to Letchworth (maybe path issues) so it reverses at Biggleswade and uses the crossover from the Down Slow to the Up Slow and then heads back to Hitchin.
Clearly not using AP packs..
this is 2014... not 2020....
Nice video and good detail, how do you get ther silver east coast 225 and the flying Scotsman?

I should also add this is set in 2012, the Hitchin starter doesn't appear to run anymore
