    Yet another cancellation.
    No explanation anywhere as far as I can see...
    I wonder if anyone knows?

    Possibly the same reason as Vintage Trains 'Cotswold Explorer' being canned.

    They are now operating the rescheduled 60103 trips from earlier this month on the 11th November.
    Original SD trips were postponed due to the axle box failure with 60103.

    Lack of stock available. Steam Dreams often run with the ex-green train mk2 set. As mentioned 60103’s circulars in the east have been rescheduled to this date and therefore are taking the stock too. Therefore no stock is available for Cromwell’s tour on the same day. Could also be a case of lack of stewards and staff to run a second steam dreams tour on the same day.

    I cannot recall a single occasion when Steam Dreams have tried to run 2 separate trains on the same day. It's a bit of a no brainer that if there is a clash of interests anything involving FS will get priority!
