Cathedrals Express Tue 29th September

The timings are up for Tuesday with Kinlet. P1 at Westbury in the morning but on the return only 12 mins in Exeter and a minute set down at Taunton???

Anyone heard anything about the return? Can't find a light engine move for the diesel either.

There is an allowance of 30 minutes between Norton Fitzwarren and Taunton, so I expect the loco change be on the relief line at Fairwater Yard. There are no light engine moves in the system yet.

There must be a 100% likelyhood of a diesel banker all day on this train

 

If there is I can't for the life of me understand why the owners would want their engine involved. Other than for the money, answers on a postcard...

 

Hall's out of gauge. Tour is postponed.

 

I understand that efforts have been made to dispatch a locomotive that may actually fit somewhere on the GWR network now Network Rail have finished the re-gauging... now being delivered

Thought they might have tried to get the Brit as it's in Southall and doing the Westbury-Kingswear on Saturday 3rd Oct., but probably too short notice to get Support Crews etc.. - and the 3rd Oct has vanished off the RTC site.

 

The 3rd October RTC trip is now coming up as cancelled on the UKSteam info site.

 

I don't know why they dont just pull the tours for the rest of this year. Looks like they are going to be anyway!
