    Correct, my birthday and early morning. Here's another, further back (which I may have posted before!) It is snow you can see at the front end, not noise!

    From the Icons of Steam Website : -

    We are pleased to confirm that The Tyne-Tees Streak railtour has been redated and confirmed as running on Thursday, 5th December. This railtour commences diesel hauled at Bristol and continues to collect passengers en-route to York, where No. 4464 ‘Bittern’ will take over for a round trip from York to Newcastle. The train will return to Bristol diesel hauled.

    All passengers booked on this train will be contacted about the new date by Pathfinder Railtours.

    I've told her, twice, and I'm still alive. It coincides with a drinks party she was going to - but hadn't told me about it - so she'd have been out and about anyway on my birthday.

    So - hopefully - in a fit of conscience she may even be persuaded to pay for your ticket as a birthday present ?
