    Would appear WSR's Somerset & Dorset Jt Rly 7F is being made available to join our festivities. Many thanks to the WSR.
    Usual intensive timetable with added shuttles and goods train workings.
    Hoping that all locos will be available for use :
    53 [30053]
    6695
    34028 Eddystone
    34070 Manston
    80078
    80104

    On the evenings of Friday 11th and Saturday 12th we hope to run one of our rakes of coaches "Beyond Norden" with passengers riding for a supplementary fare. Planning to have refreshments available including beers.

    Sounds very good. Out of curiosity how far beyond Norden can you run in the evenings?

    It would be just under a mile, from Norden station to the NR boundary at Motala. Train would need to be top 'n' tailed and we would have to clip & plug the points. Something you could not do easily during the gala daytime service.
