Steam Dreams 2026

71000 appears out of the mist at the D'oly Carte themed Denham Golf Club station

 

It's on the market and open to bookings so, given the cost especially, it's perfectly reasonable in my opinion to discuss it at this time.

 

Let's hope it's this one, it would make sense for it to be.

 

I don't think anyone else does either, Harry. I personally think it's good to discuss things early as it can help people make their decision as to whether or not they wish to book this trip or any others for that matter.

 

Which one?

 

The Penzance tour. Perfect route and perfect loco.

 

71000 is rostered for this trip on Steam Dreams website.

 

That’s a real shame

 

Received an email mailshot from SD about a "new route" Ashford to Bath.
So all good, but bearing in mind our ongoing debate about unclear advertising (diesels on the back) makes no mention of it being steam only from West London as per the SD description of the trip. So yes if you drill down in the details it is there, but if the email galvanises folks and they just go to the booking page is this also equally unclear advertising? Plus it may have a diesel on the back as well I suspect.
