    I think you will find that they are the requested times from the operator/TOC to NR - hence the words provisional times. They could of course turn out to be exactly as requested.

    Thanks for the insight, until today there were no provisional times listed, so it's information which wasn't available until now.

    Good day out for £79 standard

    The outline times were there well before the weekend on the the Ian Riley website unless I’m mistaken. Apologies if that’s not correct.

    Thanks Stephen, I guess I feared that - no spectacular climb up to Sough then!

    As long as the passengers know where to be and when it's all good IMO. Can't imagine why anyone would want to go out and phot it, given the weather forecast on Saturday!
