    Don’t think so. NR have supplied RTC with dep/arr times issued with e ticket, times are similar/identical with those used for Citadel and FS Xmas Dalesman, NR are only running a skeleton service or no service - why worry?

    It shall be interesting to see what locomotive is going to be selected for Saturday even though Leander is expected by some at the moment.

    I thought that it was Galatea that is currently under maintenance and passengers have been told it will be Leander. See #5 - Keep up at the back please.

    Narrowing the potential 4 options down to 2. Train load RTC trains are 12 or less passenger cars. 45690 with 11 or less carriages, 35018 if it is 12. Reasonable?

    If Mayflower has past it’s tests with success, is there any reason why she can’t pull the train?

    I drove past Carnforth earlier and believe I saw the consist waiting to depart. *I think* Lindsay was on the back, but facing east - not seen that running for a bit, should make a racket up the long drag. Also seemed to have been repainted into BR green (late crest) - looked superb. Assuming my eyes weren't deceiving me, of course.

    Is it too early to know what’s at the head of this one? Would definitely be booking if it is BIL having been emailed the discount code...
