    Ticket arrived today but no timings. Steam Dreams are hoping to receive them tomorrow.
    This trip is going anti-clockwise round the White Cliffs route.

    Look out you window boys, Hales is back after a couple of years off the mainline. Dusted down the goggles and ready to go! Doesn't get better than double headed Black 5's. Look forward to seeing my old friends, if they are still around, and Marcus and Charlie of Steam Dreams.

    On time through Ashford.

    Question for the livery experts: should it be BR or LMS style tinsel ?

    Impressive climb of the bank from a standing start from Buckland Junction , due to late running service train.

    But it matches the lining!

    Wonder how long it took to get Network Rail approval? Did it need re-gauging? What's with the Golden Stag on the headboard bracket?

    Judging by the steam under the first tender, looks like they had a sanders on to set-back too and have another go.

    Compliments are due to the support crew for the superb turn out of the two locos. 44871 even has "quartered" buffers.
    Someone had a late night, or early morning!
    Very well done chaps....
