    Didn’t Brit 13 fail about the same time as Mr Hardy passed away?
    I think this was the month before the SVR’s spring gala?
    Basically the SVR spring gala used to be a week before my birthday which football wise always seems to fall on an international break so I’d say 2018?
    I certainly have memories of lots of snow around that time, I certainly remember taking a photo of the elephants in the Safari Park at Bewdley in the snow behind S&D 88 on the first leg of my journey home and remarking to my Dad about how some people might find how strange it was. (Seemed perfectly normal to me btw)
    Apologies for going off topic, but it’s triggered a memory.

    Is RTT suggesting 46115 on Day 6 from Edinburgh to Carlisle instead of 34067?

    OK I'd better rephrase my post. Except for days 1 and 8, the main drags are up there, a lot of light loco paths are shown for the diesel and a lot of LE moves are shown. That might or might not be the whole story for those days. As it stands I agree with you.

    I guess steam from Llandudno Station on day 4 might be a bit of unusual track?

    Hasn’t 5043 been to Llandudno a few times? Maybe 7029 as well?

    Interesting - there are two 'Runs as required' 95mph paths from Paddington at 0713 - is this a separate path at 0711?

    They are just regular Saturday Q paths. I see it was not used (like most weeks I guess) last Saturday.

    A friend who is on the trip sent me the timings for Day 1 from the brochure:

    340119192_2803843299747002_5043811866126106115_n.png 340473907_532792125697178_349602247668278942_n.png

    LSL's "Great Western Envoy" (probably 61306) is taking the same route as far as Heywood Rd Jn, and they'll be roughly 90 minutes apart!

    I can see a "Runs as required" ECS path (as well as one in the other direction) but "Planned for 95mph max".
