    Hello All,

    As I'm booked on this tour and really looking forward to it, I thought I would start the thread. Class A4 Pacific 4-6-2 60009 'UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA' is the locomotive rostered to haul this tour "The Cathedrals Express" from London Kings Cross to York and return.

    Hello All,
    I see the times for this day trip (tour), including the Empty Stock moves, are showing in Realtime Trains now. Therefore I am going to put the links to them here. Mainly for those who wish to plan their day ahead if going out to video or photograph the Class A4 hauling our train. Or of course, the diesel locomotive that will be doing the stock moves. My thanks go to Realtime Trains for their early inclusion of the times on the website. As I am booked on this trip I would be very interested in viewing any photographs or videos taken by others on the day at a later date. Therefore please share links etc, thank you.
