Dartmouth Steam Railway General Discusssion

According to the DSR facebook page the King is the main steam loco over the weekend. With the 25 on the Diesel turns.

Someone asked on the post what the second steam loco on the Saturday is and DSR have replyed with L94.

 

King and a rat, I’m there

 

6023 working today
5 locos so far this year on public trains- brilliant
Looked just right in Kingswear

Afaik it’s not- I suggest you ring and ask!!
I suspect it’s 75014 tomorrow Anthony.
Good luck next time

Thxs train tickets cancelled, will be down for beer fest instead

 

What way will 6023 face at the Beer fest? L94 still towards Kingswear?

 

hi there

I'm planning to come down during August to photograph and ride behind the king at some point, I just don't know which date as of yet, do we know what exact dates the king will be running whilst she is down there?

I know you might not have this information or you may only know a week or even days in advance but it would help with my booking a hotel etc and train travel in advance?

hope you are able to help

regards Martyn

 

See post 552.

 

thanks for the info.

rather not be down for the regatta but if that is the only time then might have to start planning.

regards Martyn

 

The reply from DSR about the second loco has been changed to the Manor.
