    I will probably attend next weekend, my first visit for years but I would never pre-book without a substantial discount being offered, just in case something happens (car breaks down etc) and I can't make it. Are the fares in the website the same...

    There's also https://eisenbahnplaner.net/ And https://www.drehscheibe-online.de/ds_redaktion/ds_termine.php?DS=1 Though they take a bit of wading through to find all the info, and not everything is included unfortunately.

    Thanks. Unfortunately there isn't something like Railadvent in Germany. You habe to check the different main line charter organiser for yourself. The most important one in West-Germany are: NostalgieZugReisen...

    I subscribe to you on youtube and these videos are up to your usual standard! Is there a website that lists German mainline steam trips? I really want to get over there and try some of the mainline steam having visited the narrow gauge a few times.

    2999 is the same, and 6023 likewise before it. But 4144 and 5322 were ok.

    I understand that but 4079 has been like this for years!

    Why does 4079 seemingly leak so much? It's been like this since it was outshopped, so presumably it would have been fixed by now if it was simply a case of repacking a gland or tightening a joint. Is it intentional therefore?!

    Noisy, but a bit leaky at the front end! Nice to hear it work though.
