Both took it in turn to haul each other around-a good run out for the two locomotives.

Fun fact - the designer of the Bachmann Class 90 also now works for Accurascale

No good them,  you need a class 87!  Much better to drive than the class 90's.

The 90 rescued the 89 on the railtour I went on recently. They’re going to try again in October…

Do you get a free trip on the second try, given the promised 89 failed?

Yes! The first attempt didn’t reach the advertised destination either, so they could hardly claim to have delivered what was promised. 
But how far will the badger get on the second attempt?

I wasn't expecting that answer, but I'm pleasantly surprised!
