    i see the Scarborough Flyer is back again this year, but which route across the Pennines?

    there tour description says via Rochdale, but there booking form says Hudersfield

    wonder which is right as problems last year at Stalybridge are now rectified with the remodelling of the station

    Dear Mr Dimmer,

    The steam train is picking up passengers at Huddersfield this year.

    Kind regards

    IIRC this was confirmed a month or two back. Ollie will most likely be based at Southall this summer.

    Well Oliver Cromwell is supposed to be coming north for next weekend to partake in the East Lancashire Railway's 1T57 event and then the mainline 1T57 on Sunday 11 August. Maybe it is then going to head back south.

    UKSteam quoting inclusion of diesel, if all the rain comes this week as forecast then maybe no supporting diesel?

    I really hope that nr shall let 46233 power the train, 47 behind it or not. Seeing 61994 being pushed today, sad. 46233 is not the type to be pushed around, I hope.

    Well there has been more overnight rain in the Manchester area so fingers crossed 546233 will be allowed to do some work.

    Diesel did not appear to be pushing as the train departed Stockport over the viaduct, but I'm sure it will "assist" over the more flammable sections.
