But, nothing is confirmed yet. Northern certainly need to keep the Loco Hauled in my opinion as the train I got back to Carlisle from the remote village I was in had standees, even with four/five carriages. So imagine what it would be like on a one coach Class 153!
Also, there is talk of Northern bringing Loco Hauled to Newcastle for the Rugby World Cup.
I'll get that loco-haul set.
