    Yes, as @Paul42 says, they are on the VT website. No tickets yet but that doesn't matter. If NR are timely in sorting out the paths, which seems to be the case this time, then it's massively helpful for VT to make the headline times available. I know that they used to be rather coy about doing this but to share as soon as they have them does at least allow people who are not local to plan for doing the trip in a day, which is possible in this case. As we all know, Advance rail ticket prices can change very close to the date of travel.

    So thanks to VT (and NR actually).

    A bit of information that may or may not be of interest. We are now able to post provisional times due to better communication and cooperation between WCRC and Net Rail. When WCRC submit a bid on VT's behalf to NetRail 12 weeks in advance of the railtour, it now includes a proposed path or 'timed bid'. Although this is increased workload and cost for WCRC, it makes the whole process smoother and easier to plan. We do not always get the proposed path for various reasons, but it is usually pretty close. Hopefully the days of thinking we are leaving at 8am then finding out we have a 6am departure are in the past!

    We need to add primarily thanks to WCRC as well.

    Certainly of interest to us and thanks for the information Ben. Certainly helps when passengers like us have a 90 mins+ drive to Tyseley on the day. And I guess I'll be shot down in flames for saying so, but the ticket prices for this train are almost giveaway. If it ain't fully booked there's something sadly wrong with the enthusiast market.

    9644 certainly drew plenty of attention from enthusiasts and the public alike this evening!

    Tickets arrived today confirming the 0920 (0930) start and 2005 return to Tyseley. A great day in prospect with plenty of variety and a layover at somewhere reasonable. Hope the final preparations go ok.

    Action from Wilmcote & Wooton Wawen ! Something sounded like it was dragging or hanging off from the stock or wheel flats.
