Thanks very much, we were on the morning run and really enjoyed it. Dave
From mid-July to mid-September the normal pattern seems to be Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday, with the addition of Bank Holiday Monday....
It should be the 31 all being well. Midweek running days are Tuesday and Wednesday. Cheers Dave

Thanks both for the info. Cheers Dave
My dear wife told me she had seen a maroon coach with lining heading east on the M62 yesterday, she thought the number began with 47 so possibly a...
Getting back to the original question about 5699, does anyone know if Carnforth have a full set of rods/motion? I only ask as Tyseley are probably...
