    The event sold out last year and places are limited so better to book sooner rather than later...

    Unfortunately due to the recent flooding (the worst experienced in the railway's history), this event has now been cancelled. Full statement here:

    As a volunteer at DCDR it's quite a depressing time for us all, with virtually all of our diesel fleet having had their traction motors and axleboxes submerged.
