    We got to Embsay late yesterday afternoon. Beatrice and a Class 31 diesel were working trains. The rebuild 060 tender engine (Douglas? - last seen a few years ago at the Spa Valley) was in steam at Embsay.

    I know - possibly one of the worst heritage railway websites! Rather than trying to attract passengers, they seem to be making it as difficult as possible.

    That is completely unfair. The Ffestiniog Railway's site is much worse. At least Embsay make a slight nod towards telling you trains times....

    I note that @burnham-t said "possibly". Having tried to establish information from the Embsay website, and then compared it to the Ffestiniog, my own reaction is that the Ffestiniog do betray signs of understanding that potential visitors want an idea of what to expect that is almost entirely absent from the Embsay website. Both have a fundamental issue to an enthusiast like me, which is their devotion to pre-booked "experience" trips; the Embsay website implementation of it is far worse.

    You can download the full daily timetable from the Ffestiniog website - there is a link on the 'Train Services' page.
