    Alternative way to get to Bury by public transport may be train to Bolton, then bus to Bury, goes right past Bolton Street station with a stop outside.

    I think we are going to opt for that as it is likely to have greater certainty and we have advanced tickets to /from the south. Every 20 mins Piccadilly to Bolton and then Worstbus 471 every 10 mins and it passes the door at Bolton Street

    Lets hope the have a 'whale' of a time, and no 'sharks' are about to spoil things, but if it doesn't go to plan we don't want any 'grampus' comments!
    Any chance of a confirmation on the direction 5643's facing, thanks?

    Our friends at the Met-office suggest heavy snow day for all day Saturday, but good clear day for Sunday with some sunshine. I guess that dictates which is the riding day!

    For anyone who are thinking of driving to the Elr today. The roads are currently clear but frosty. Please be careful.

    I liked the Crab supported by 2 Black Five bankers. I enjoyed watching the video, thanks for taking the trouble to film and post it.

    That's some nice filming, and you've obviously scouted out your locations carefully. Glad to see the final word went to the freight!

    I'm down the ELR tomorrow, looks like I'll have to wrap up very warm.

    Top performances today, from locos & crews !! Roads were a nightmare this morning ! Had to get out and push. Trains ran to time and looked reasonably busy, which was good to see, considering the weather ! Video to follow.
