    Does anyone who is travelling on this tour have the outline timings yet? Would be interested to know.

    Thanks
    Richard :tongue:

    Hi Richard,

    I did hear 45305 was due at Euston about 13.00, turning etc around Willesden/ Acton area.

    Hope this thread does'nt get swamped out with box on the back comments like others at the moment, yawn!

    Looking forward to seeing her out there myself.

    Regards

    I may be tempted to travel on this when I see the timings (and therefore know whether I can get to a joining station in the morning and home at night). As usual, the Vintage Trains website is not forthcoming on this matter.

    Not on the last return trip to Euston it wasn't as a lot of photograhers were caught out.

    I think you may be thinking of the Kensington trip earlier in the year.

    Just wondered if anyone knows Southend Hill at Cheddington. Is there any access to the hill there and any view out to the railway?
