    Ralph W it was a pleasure to meet you at long last and enjoyed the chinwag. I hope you didn't find the 'Cumbria Crew' too frightening and hope to meet again sometime. Please pass on my thanks to your colleagues for a most enjoyable day.

    Best wishes

    48151 is the engine showing on my final operating notice so will probably work it now subject to all the usual caveats/last minute checkovers being as planned. We hadn't advertised the actual power ourselves as it was "fluid" depending on availability (+needs of the TOC) on the weeks of operation so other quotes will have just been guesswork off original schedules from NR I suspect.

    Still room in both classes, including the front-most carriages nearest the loco (last I checked).
