    Perhaps the Driver of the Year award could be called 'The Red Neckerchief Award"

    We will do this tour again. It went to plan and was very well received by the passengers and lineside alike.

    Think we will rename it the 'Shropshire Explorer' to go along with the 'Cotswold Explorer'.

    Excellent. I'll be on the next one but, given the route, it would be great if it were in a part of the year with longer daylight hours.

    Likewise Wrexham.
    Perhaps 'North Marches Explorer' might be better?
