Ah that explains it thanks. I just looked again to watch one Manor steam off with one carriage towards Minehead. I presume the other ran round...
Hello - excuse my nosiness but noted on the webcams some unusual moves today - c1115 7802/7812 hauled six carries out of BL. At 1956 both have...

I think that’s missing the point - you do have to look at both. Revenue may be flat but if it is earned from fewer miles then variable costs will...
