    Some of the old faces still support the mainline steam movement; but the uncontrollable diesel on the back and Coffin stock severely reduce what we do. Even Vintage Trains run most of theirs trains with the dreaded box box on the back that frustratingly assists too often. It will be really something if 71000 is allowed to run without a tailgunner. LSL have run a few trains like it this year with Class 8s. Lots of fingers and toes crossed!!!!

    Surely at this time of year the weather and the state of the rails must be a factor. Here's hoping for a lovely bright dry day.

    I'm led to believe its a light load. Shap is generally tree free, apart from the final half mile to the summit.

    Thought the original times were optimistic. What on earth can people who don't live in London do at Euston at 23.40? And now back in the dark as well.
