    Interesting! She's based on the WSR at the moment, isn't she? I wonder if she'll work the full distance, or if there'll be a loco change at Westbury?
    I think the limiting climbs will be Torre bank and perhaps the banks on the PDSR, though assistance could be provided by their Cl 25 or even another steam loco. In any case, she's about as powerful as the previously rostered loco, Mayflower.

    And to boot she has made a few le moves between WSR and Paignton so gauging should not be an issue! Just to think with what Kinlet and Roody have been able to do recently. I really hope this pays off for SD. This can definitely be a win-win.

    The website says the loco will work 'from Somerset to Kingswear', so that means Taunton, unless Steam Dreams think Westbury is in Somerset!

    UKSteam have confirmed that Kinlet Hall will start and finish at Westbury on both trips.

    Time for Steam Dreams to have some geography lessons on British counties!

    Don't complain - Westbury-Kingwear is further than from Taunton. Besides, the Wiltshire/Somerset border is only a few miles from Westbury. Frome is in Somerset. ;-)

    Who am I to doubt UKSteam? However, if you look at both trips, neither of them is giving a pickup at Westbury and I would have thought that if the train calls there to change locos then it's daft not to also offer it as a boarding point. There is, of course, the advantage of putting the Hall on at Taunton as it's based at the WSR and that IS given as a pickup. So make of that what you can.
