    Yes Booked on it, glad the timings only give us 2hrs in Holyhead, much better than 4hrs on a Sun.

    Not a bad foray into Wales on St David's day, all told. The link between Stockport and Northenden Junction was pretty rare and useful for the steam map, as was the stretch from Hartford CL Junction to Mickle Trafford (I did Hartford CL Junction to Northenden Junction via Northwich with 45690 back in 2016 - think much of this stretch was last done by 60163 in 2019).

    We never managed to recover the deficit caused by the low water pressure at Denton, which essentially snowballed into an hour by the time we left Holyhead. However, we were blessed by lovely weather and views of Snowdonia.

    There's always one who is not satisfied with staying in a safe position. :Facepalm:
