Ray I've been working on similar myself for sometime. I'll cross reference and come back to you. Jonathan
Thanks Oswald, that's helpful. I was on the 2018 trip but suffering from insomnia and so my recollections of the day are hazy! I do remember...
Can anyone who was on the train confirm how far down the Hindlow line the train went? The 2019 trip in the snow got to the junction for Briggs...
