    Has 'Steam Dreams' ceased operating? Their forthcoming runs are seemingly all cancelled and their web site has disappeared - at least all the searches I have tried have come up with error messages. I hadn't heard anything to suggest this is the case and I'm wondering what is known.

    Steam Dreams web site is down with a server error rather than gone.

    Their website often goes down, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. According to Companies House,
    Bryherley Limited T/A Steam Dreams (company number 04036827) is still trading.

    The SD staff are all (well most of them) overseas at the moment I think on the Emerald Isle Explorer. The cancellations are down to the lack of available loco's. 70013 is not quite ready yet and 45305 is in several parts at the GCR.

    Thanks for the replies - it was the coincidence of web site failure and cancellations that was a concern.

    There was a message on their website for the last 2 weeks stating that a new website would be coming soon.
    As has been said their website often goes down usually in the evening.

    I am fairly sure they are currently,as of today, operating a big tour round Ireland using RPSI stock and locomotives?

    It would seem an odd time to go out of business having just operated many over-subscribed Flying Scotsman trips which it is hard to believe were anything other than profitable.

    Steam Dreams website up and running as at 8.50AM this morning.

    I also received a promotional voucher from the company yesterday, so it is still up and running.
