    Yes the attraction of the Jacobite in its "traditional" form over a Scotrail unit is undisputed. But 2024 onwards? Maybe not so much, although it still seems to sell well even though the operator themselves said the current rolling stock wasn't...

    Its true on Northern routes but a) the journey to Mallaig is at much slower average speed and b) why on earth would you want to be lost in a podcast when travelling through the scenery of the WHL? An apples an pears comparison, really.

    ScotRail has been operating discounted fares on the Mallaig line during the summer I read somewhere, which has not gone down well with the Jacobite operator. The 156 units are of course fresh air stock with big windows ......

    I would suggest when a very small number of people are getting ridiculously rich; while normal folk worry about turning on the cooker or boiler, when rivers are environmentally dead, when 25% of all drinking water is lost in leaks and a country...

    It's a few years since we last went to Glenfinnan and it was pretty bad then. It's the counterpoint to the "outcry" from local businesses when the Jacobite wasn't running earlier in the season though.

    With its cut-down boiler mountings and slimline cylinders, 6024's appearance is no longer 'authentic' for any part of its working life. So, arguably, it really doesn't matter what colour they paint it now...
