    Still pleased to see the separate path.
    From UK Railtours, when I enquired, had not looked closely at the box's path.

    Looks good news on 60009 U. of S. A!

    Any recommendations for a good real ale pub near Carlisle Station please? (Griffin??). We only have an hour.

    Coach A! sincerely hope that's the A4 end of the consist! lucky man if it is! music from York to Carlisle and no buzzing for the rest!

    Kings Cross for us coach D 4, tight connection from St Panc, so PBR if we miss the charter. Birthday treat for 'erself, I'm just going along to keep her company;);)

    We intend bailing at PBR on the return and getting the service train which overtakes the charter, gets us home an hour earlier after a long day.

    No danger of lineside fires from the forecast!

    At the north end of Bleamoor Tunnel - luckily a brief moment when it wasn't chucking it down with rain or hail stoning with a vengeance!
    And fairly certain i saw JC on the footplate - its his elbow you can see!
