    Assuming they have worked at all...

    Anyway, back to the train - today's run swapped from headcode 1Z10 to 5z10 while at Victoria and appears to be heading for Cranmore ECS. Any further details from anyone?

    I'm probably alone here, but I find that price an obscenity, pandering as it does to those who like to be seen to be indulging in not just conspicuous, but contemptuous consumption.

    Sorry, but as I said, it isn't "out of the box" (implying a new train) - it's a re-worked old one.

    Indeed, not a surprise. Thanks.

    Indeed so. All this makes me think they might just use the now-spare 159s sitting about! I imagine any significant axle-loading limits will almost certainly remove steam from the equation.

    Thanks. Perhaps ACE will come to mean 'All Changed Excursion', then!

    Which is? Do you mean a different pathing if a lower-powered steam loco is used? Or the WoE route p.way issue?

    Is there any news on what is likely to haul the ACE on 16 August (if it is still running)? I had thought 'Tornado' was in the frame, but perhaps not.

    Very few out after this, surely the highlight of the weekend. Great to see Scotsman back on the main line UNASSISTED. Seen passing Barrow on Soar.[ATTACH]

    Indeed, but this rake is not new - it has been modified significantly. I don't know if it's passenger amenity stuff that has been failing, or railway operating systems (or both). Either way, the costs must be mounting rapidly for Belmond, as I...

    RTT says it is planned for 33mph max - perhaps an (optimistic!) omen...? So this is the return to base of the ill-fated K&WVR trip?
