    Are the tickets just valid for the inaugural run or are they valid for the remainder of the days services?

    This is an oversight and will be corrected shortly.

    I have confirmed with the K&ESR’s commercial manager that a ticket for the ‘Poplar’ inaugural train can be used as a ‘day rover’ for the rest of the day.

    The naturism dining train is an interesting idea. Let's hope it doesn't go tits up. Wouldn't want someone making an arse of themselves.

    Are they getting advice from the Epping and Ongar? Will we get more 'steamy' movies? :Jawdrop::Mooning::Nailbiting:

    Please, don't even go there, theres not enough brain bleach, for that image, The few times i stumbled on nudist beaches near me, Yes it was purely by accident, and most of them were elderly, and overweight, not young fit model types, besides, any staring roll would be snapped up by Meg, i hear she's already looking through her wardrobe for something suitable to wear, she settled on an black leather trench coat, boots and whip :D

    Hunslet works no. 469 Hastings has arrived for its first visit since restoration, painted in K&ESR blue and numbered 15 as it was in the 1960s.
