    Galatea did the Scarborough last Thursday and no mention was made of Leander taking over, but you never know.

    Do you know how far away from the tracks the fence line is at this location?
    Might have been leaning on the fence to take it.

    Looks like a double whammy there then for @henrywinskill. Unnecessary comment to go alongside unnecessary music posts. :)

    Nice to see the slanderous accusations haven't died out just yet :rolleyes:

    No one likes trepassing but don't point the finger unless you're 100% sure.

    UoSA is still down for the MNR Gala and driver experiences the day before. I might be being a bit naive in the workings of the big railway, but, as the Cotswold Venturer has been postponed until August, would it not make more sense to turn left at Peterborough and head to the MNR rather than head all the way down (up?) to Stewarts Lane and then come back again?

    UoSA is needed at Stewarts Lane for a private charter I believe, but I have no confirmation of this. Can anyone confirm ?
