    Yes I am an active volunteer
    appreciate there is a link to the 60103 and christmas tour threads but separating this out as it maybe worth a stand alone discussion

    We are very proud to announce that in association with Uk Railtours, Science Museum Group, Northern Steam Operations and DB Cargo we are bringing you a superb Christmas outing with Flying Scotsman.
    Seats are sure to sell fast and you can book here:

    Throughout 2025 ERS has put itself right at the heart of a rejuvenated charter market with day trips, enthusiast specials, gala weekends and now a new string to our bow - Steam Specials.
    We have some grand plans for 2026 and whilst we’d originally planned to launch our Mk2 rake towards the end of 2025, as we get into autumn we now have two full rakes of charter coaches in service covering all bases including dining, people moving and comfortable First Class vehicles.
    But it doesn’t end there, as our recent post teases we have two more big announcements to make in the coming days . . .

    Good luck to them, a little more competition/option in the market will be a benefit.

    Albeit I believe all the stock is Mk2's or 3's, so I assume all the arguments re WCR which have been debated to death will be repeated verbatim on here.

    Hopefully won't be repeated, because it wont make the blindest bit of difference.

    This is a good move for the overall health of the industry. To reference another comment on this forum, it moves some control away from 2 rich men and shows there is another way. It will also assist DB in rebuilding some of their steam experience.
