The Midlander -28th june - 6233 non stop

I do...I do! lol

 

I can't speak for anyone else, but New St - Stechford via Adderley Park is certainly no great scenic or performance delight, the route via Perry Barr included Soho Bank and if your a track basher, that side of the triangle at Perry Barr is very rare.

Only trouble is a repeat of a good itinary would probably need Sutherland again, as good as Edgcumbe is, lifting 15 up Camden is prob asking too much of a class 7.

 

Ben

I wasn't a customer this time but you will be the first operator to get my dosh when time allows. Your trips are head and shoulders above the competition and I am eternally grateful for the opportunity to see that trip last Saturday!

Impressed is an understatement.

 

Vintage Trains offer the best steam hauled trips with plenty of steam milage, good prices, good destinations.

VT have a brilliant relationship with network rail and with past trips that has been proved. Plenty of non-stop runs, letting steam go onto rare steam location.

We should be getting beind Bob, Ben snd vt crew for an amazing hard job they do to plan these trips.

I was onboard the midlander and was impressed throughout with the duchess and the disesl helping us.

Hopefully more non stops planned in near future. When does the vt brochure for sept to dec 14 get released?

 

This tour was one of three I managed to see during a day in London, I have a few shots of her arrival and departure at Euston as well as two other steam runs that were running that day (44932 & 35028)

One never gets over one's first love.

............but add 7029 and you'd wake the whole of London up!
