    Just had the bad news that Princess Elizabeth has been cancelled for this and all pre Xmas excursions, boiler problems.

    Two black fives to substitute.

    Obviously disappointed as the main reason for booking has gone

    Anyone else baffled how a locomotive fresh from overhaul needs a re-tube?

    Defective tube materials perhaps?

    Probably because the scope of the previous overhaul work was quite limited. Now that there are more funds in the coffers, a lot of additional work is being planned in a second phase between now and next summer.

    May I suggest moderators move the comments on Princess Elizabeth to a new separate thread please? This discussion is far removed from the excursion to Salisbury

    Both the last two Railway Heralds have reported it. That does not make it fact, granted.

    PM would have been the polite way to warn me I'd done a silly.

    Letter for passengers on today's ST train from Southend to Salisbury, from Clive Majonier on behalf of the owning trust, states that the engine has returned to Butterleigh for the replacement of 120 tubes.

    Tickets received this afternoon, timings TBC. One suspects a slightly longer journey than advertised with the 60mph limit on the blackuns to be applied.

    Coach F if others are on board.

    Under two days to departure and still no times from N.R. doesn't help passengers with a journey to Ashford. Fortunately mine is not too long!

    I'm getting a sinking feeling about this one - nothing on RTT yet, which is much later than most steam runs of late.
