    Icons Of Steam and UK Railtours announce the third of a new generation of railtours

    The White Rose II will run from London Kings Cross to York, collecting from Potters Bar, Stevenage and Peterborough on its way, hauled throughout by N0. 4464 Bittern.

    Running on Saturday 14th June this will be a fantastic opportunity to travel with Bittern on her home stomping ground before she retires at the end of 2014. Tickets are priced from £99pp in Standard Class and from £225pp in First Class Dining which includes Great British Breakfast on the outward journey and a four course dinner on return.

    Find out more about this fantastic railtour at www.iconsofsteam.com/railtours/the-white-rose-ii

    34046, no that's not a typo! Sat platform 1 at Kings Cross ready for the off. Rumour is injector problems with 60019.

    Rumour of injector problems is correct according to my support crew contact.

    No wonder it's running early then - a Southern beast eating up the miles on LNER territory?

    Waiting at Arlesey for its imminent fly by

    Err, yes it did raise eyebrows amongst those of us gathered at Welham Green!

    My thought was, funny looking A4 that.........

    Thank goodness that Braunton was available & cleared for the route - well done to all concerned, & I hope that Bittern is back to full health very soon

    After days of nice sunny mornings we get the typical "GN steam weather," dull and grey. 34046 near Sandy.[​IMG]34046 by KING COBRA 92, on Flickr

    Well, I'm "hoping" fingers crossed that the sun puts in an appearance for the return this evening...................

    If it does, then when 34046 gets to Welham Green (please be on time...) I should stand a chance of a nice glint shot.......

    I imagine the dull weather was Sir Nigel expressing his displeasure at Messrs Bulleid and Jarvis daring to have one of their machines on his railway today.

    Possibly but we get the dull stuff even if it's one of Sir Nigel's finest running. I reckon it's the Swindon lot casting a curse because they never built anything as good as Gresley or Bulleid.

    Hmm, that's a thought. I think the sun should still be above the industrial estate, just! I'll probably go to Wymondley, good chance of a glint there. Still overcast in Sandy at the moment, but plenty of time for it to clear.

    They've already got their own back though by having A4s painted in GWR livery. Yuck!

    Except 5043 of course, but I suppose a lot of that is down to Bob Meanley and the guys at Tyseley
