    Wasn't me showing concern as such (I'm not on it), just read it elsewhere.

    @buseng . unless you are a member you can't read the link unfortunately

    I suspect as both this and and the PRCLT tour are amongst the earliest non routine day tours post WCRC coming back , much is being done to ensure they can run within the new processes and each tour is being assessed on a case by case basis . I understand the frustration but casting doubts don't help @Ben Vintage-Trains

    Sorry, didn't realise that. Takes me straight to the topic as I auto log in.
    Might cause ructions if I copy & past the posts though.

    So long as she's steam tight and no warm bearings that's all that matters :)
