no things in peterborough are not a drag, i'm on about the diversions bewteen peterborough and newark northgate. Due to engineering work east coast, hull trains and grand central services were diverted from peterborough to newark or doncaster via lincoln with grand central and east coast HSTs going from lincoln up to doncaster via gainsborough which hull trains took a different route to keep it's grantham stops then back on the ecml at newark meanwhile the east coast 91s were stopped at peterborough for a class 67 to attach and take them to newark via lincoln. class 67s used were 67003, 67019, 67022, 67023, 67024 and 67029 ofwhich i got haulage on 67019, 67022 and 67003 in that order. overall i had a great day on these drags and getting some rare miles in. i also managed to see 6233 dutchess of sutherland on it's last railtour in the morning of the drags too
