    dont think any steam has been around the Todmorden curve yet and probably thats why they said no to that route. Only other way is Hellifield Leeds and Hebden Bridge etc.

    Some clips from the Saturday, including a rather bizzare incident where the driver of 32 'Gothenburg' had to stop because someone was sitting on the railhead to get a photo of the oncoming train!
