    Does anyone know what locos will be used for the 1940’s weekend (13th/14th May)?
    I’ve looked on the website and the locomotive roster page is completely blank.

    Looks like it’s a fairly intensive service so would still like to know what else is running?

    Don't 100% quote me but I've heard "Sapper" is meant to be out

    The intention is to run 257 Squadron, Sapper and Hastings, as I understand it. This is, inevitably, subject to the usual caveats.

    34027 was facing Bridgnorth last time it saw it. 34072 is facing Tenterden though.

    Yep. Sadly, although our staff got 257 and Sapper ready, there simply wasn't enough time to do repairs and an FTR for Hastings. So our 40's weekend will be offering an opportunity for time travel!

    Does that mean the DMU will be running at 88mph??
