    Received their bumpf a week ago. If there are a couple more steam tours still to be added later in the year, I would like to do a southbound over West Highland, as I couldn't do it two years ago. Regardless, I've travelled with them three times and they have not disappointed. Service is always excellent and volunteer staff always friendly and affable.

    I wonder if they would be any one way seats on the Duchess northbound.

    Excellent! Well, I think I might well do Polmont-FW to round off the year, along with the much-postponed 'Tin Bath'. I've also got my eye on a Dorset Coast and UK Railtour's trip to Salisbury, which takes in the relatively rare Portsmouth Direct line later on. Adding next weekend's Cumbrian Coast, the ACE, the Valleys Explorer and the Scottish Lowlander, I think that's enough to be getting on with!
