    It was being winched on board a low loader at Ingrow last Wednesday when we passed by on the L&Y train.

    Would be nice for KWVR to advertise what's running besides DMU Thursday and DRB Fri/Sun mornings.
    ie Which diesel on Sat am?
    Which steam esp as one version of information suggests two steam out Saturday daytime and a third Saturday evening.Then of the versions seen-one suggests steam/diesel top and tail Sat evening,another shows steam only.
    1300 Andy?

    You might expect that, but if I were served a pint like that I'd want it topping up a tad!
