    I think we have to take it based on evidence at this point..

    UKSteam, Open Traintimes and RTC all say the same ..

    Winter Cumbrian Mountain Express

    So looks 11th is on the original route (from Preston via S&C), but the other two are not ? (RTC's page notes that times are only for the 4th and 11th).

    To clarify - Open Train Times are still showing northbound via the S&C and southbound via Shap (which is acually down S&C up Shap, in railway parlance), but as has been discussed previously - just because those are the times currentlly "in the system", it doesn't mean the train will definitely go that way.

    It was stated on the trip last week, that this week would be S&C out and Shap back.

    My word you've been quick Phil, very good shots as usual. Mine, well not good, I have a problem with my iploading from camera to PC and the only way I can do it at the moment is using the basic WMM software so not verY good quality. [youtube]Jm7g8uYGTWg&hd=1yt:stretch=16:9[/youtube]

    Ralph, does the video look odd when you view it on YouTube? When I look it appears to be showing foreshortened like viewing 16:9 in 4:3. If it looks wrong to you as well, you might be able to fix it by adding yt:stretch=16:9 to the tags box on YouTube.
