    I noticed this railtour (The Saltburn Riviera) which is run over two days (Friday 5th & Monday 8th) which runs between Saltburn and Torquay. It looks like it is being pulled by two class 47s. Can I ask if anyone has any timings for it or where I can find them out? Also over the Saturday and Sunday when the train is not in use, will it be stabled in Goodrington sidings or will it move off somewhere else?

    Thanks

    Thanks for the info, I did check Realtime Trains website a week ago and the information wasn't there (may be because the times weren't confirmed then). Interesting to see that it is being stabled in Goodrington over the weekend.

    Thanks
