    Looks like Mayflower's trip to Bristol on June 4th is going ahead. Timings on Steam Dream's website and on RTT:

    Looks a bit pedestrian between Reading and Newbury Racecourse. 28 mins ! The stoppers with five intermediate stations do that every day !! That's the only bit I've looked at because possibly nursery school class can see it through Theale.

    That's because it follows a stopper all the way to Newbury.

    Taken a last minute ticket on this given that it has been promised that Mayflower 'sails' alone. A B1 over Savernake is rather rare, I think.

    I was thinking the same about steam departing on p.15 at Reading using the flyunder to the southern.
    Although a friend of mine informed me that 5029 with it's support coach from the Mid Hants to Barton Hill
    via Guildford used that route which turned out to be it's last run.

    For those of us north of the river it looks like a change of motive power at Reading on the way home. SD e-mail today offering 20% off this with new bookings.

    It will be the second time this year in the down direction, though 1st April may have been the first time ever.

    An interesting piece of trivia in relation to this trip. The returning empty stock plus Mayflower will meet Clan Line on Grosvenor Bridge at around 2250 if everything goes to plan. Prizes are in order for someone who can catch them side by side as they will, of course, both be facing Victoria.

    It's a tale of two halves. Over 3 hrs to cover first 60 miles to Newbury then 89 minutes for the remaining 70 miles to Temple Meads. Held at Racecourse for train to proceed but change of plan allowed us out ahead of Bedwyn unit and Exeter HST, but 13 late. From 58 at Hungerford and 64 at Bedwyn went over Savernake at 56. Nice run down Lavington at the 75 limit. 66 max between Bath and Bristol. Arrived 8 late. Hope return is as good.
