    As per website

    we return on the West Coast Main Line which takes us over Shap - the highest point on the line - and past The English Lake District, to Carnforth, where we leave our steam engines behind and return to your home stations with a heritage Diesel engine hauling us

    That's a classic example of purple prose isn't it. OK you can see Kidsty Pike but fortunately the Lancaster and Carlisle didn't take the Dunmail Raise route or even Longsleddale and Mardale.

    Having recently seen a thread about confusion of thread titles, makes perfect sense to resurrect the 13th April Citadel to reference the November run :confused:

    Not so sure about that. It's not been a frequent event in 2019 and in any case, I think the earlier run deserves to stand alone, given the memorial it became.
