    The above is the info I have just received as well, I also understand that next weeks Flyer has been cancelled, and it will be the Duchess on Saturday and UoSA on Sunday.

    Indeed ! I can't even offer "the 'r' is close to the 'n' on the keyboard" as a reason or excuse.

    As quoted in previous message


    Fridays Scarborough train is now back to 46233, as Network Rail (allegedly) needed more notice to observe 60009 pass over the Ouse bridge at York.
