    So two Jubilees, a Grange, two Manors and a BR 4MT? That's six 4-6-0s - possibly a unique gala offering?

    I certainly hope to be there.

    The current loco roster is showing that 7802 is planned to do LE testing KR-BY tomorrow (Thursday 3) and loaded testing KR-HY on Monday to Wednesday next week. Fingers crossed that all goes well.

    Not sure I'd be trusting weather forecasts for a week and a half away....! I barely trust what they say will happen the next day let alone that advance!

    Quite agree. My forecast doesn’t show any rain for the gala, infact it’s suggesting 0.2mm between now and then.

    6880 arrived today.
    Currently forecast for the weekend is a little mixed, but no washout days.

    To be honest I'm hoping for at least a little rain or I can see there being fire issues.

    We have done quite a fair bit to mitigate these issues and we’ve gone to extra lengths to try ensure we control it. Quite a bit of work the last two weeks has gone in to trying to put a plan in place, with teams asked to go lineside and deal with fires at early stages where possible.

    Good evening. I can see the SVR website confirms there will be evening only tickets after 4pm available on the day, but I can't find any details on the cost. Does anyone know the price of these tickets. Thanks in advance.
