WSR S&D Spring Steam Gala, 5-6 and 10-13 March 2016

Yeah just got mine. Amazing timetable

 

Is it the same as what online but with loco allocations?

 

Yeah it is, well worth it.

 

I assume anyone would not be allowed to post the working timetable here.

 

It wouldn't be fair. Honestly, why people jib at forking out three quid - it's hardly going to break the bank and we've seen how much work and money goes into laying on a show like this!

Will the diagrams etc be available on the day?

 

Disappointed with the lack of double headed 7Fs

 

get a timetable with tickets on each day however would recommend spending the 3 pounds and getting a programme

 

That rarely happened

 

So when I turn up will I get the TT and diagrams with my ticket?

 

I'm sure that was what somebody else said, could somebody please confirm.

 

My copy shows a pairing on one day, have another look!!

 

I think 44871 may have been operated by DBS before, she is dual braked.

 

You can by programmes on the day but makes sense to buy in advance.

 

Hi I asked the question and was told you would get a Timetable for the day that you buy your ticket for.
But why not buy the programme to keep as a souvenir!!!!

There is an intensive two days of photo charters on the thursday and friday before the first weekend, run by Don Bishop. As always I'm sure they will be great. His website states places available on the thursday. The friday is currently marked as full but may be worth dropping him a line. http://www.donbishop.co.uk/charter-details.php?id=161

Like Andy, I am also one happy born and bred S and D Fan (Midsomer Norton Lad through and through) who is also lucky enough to be a Passed Cleaner on the WSR. The Loco Lineups are great and not to be missed. These will be made available within the Gala Brocure and on a daily basis for those buying tickets. The WSR have spent a lot bringing in visiting locos so please if you come along and just take photos and don't ride the train, please give generously to the stations and platform appeals.

 

Robinguarddriver,
Ta for the reply.
Will the diagrams be available too?

 

The signalling roster is out, and I seem to have a fair slice of the Minehead signal box / Controller turns.

And all weekend days are split shifts, so time to watch the scene at Stogumber and elsewhere as well.

Excellent!

Robin

 

AIUI it will be the working timetable with loco allocations for the day you buy your ticket.
