    Someone on another forum reporting hearing a train of coaching stock passing ("no kettle whistle" was quoted) Earlswood about 13:30ish, however it seems the Chesire Cat Tour ECS from yesturday may of had a lie in at Stratford before heading back to Crewe, can't confirm any of this however having not been out.

    Train B did run up the North Warks yesterday. We were delayed in Stratford due to ECS "parked" in Platform 2; thence 4965 was unable to run-round until the ECS had been moved.

    Not to worry - we were within a few minutes leaving Snow Hill and Train C was early back into Stratford.

    Just another day! lol

    We are doing it with the pair of Panniers on 3rd November..... Regarding the SE - we have new route notes - it wouldn't do to go ahead and change it all around now! lol

    We will see what happens.....

    All,

    Any more thoughts on the NatPres meeting on the SE?

    If we decide on a date I can block one of our newly refurbed TSO's off for y'all.

    Just let me know where and when!

    Ben

    From the main line it looked like 4965 was being prepped outside the shed today.

    Thanks David, your shot is a good one too.

    I enjoyed my trip today, really liked the high speed running once on the mainline north of Hatton. Well worth it for £20!

    Hi all,

    Does any of you know tomorrows traction for The Shakespeare Express? Will it be the Hall (again) or will the Castle make a fine appearance? And if someone knows, could he/she share it with us?? ;-)

    Thanks in advance!

    Regards,
    Vincent
