    If I were a betting man I would suggest 'a' summer programme of tours will go ahead. If we have learnt something in recent weeks it's that despite the amount of bluster and woe being given to the media, there are some efforts being made to fit...

    Very well filmed. Lovely to see unassisted steam up Shap, even with a short train. Reminds me of 1967/68 when my late father took us to Scout Green to film steam and it wasn't unusual to see a local train of about four coaches with a 'Five' at...
