    The amount of videos of this event on YouTube is crazy, some are an hour or more long! I keep finding new ones to watch.

    I know what you mean, I keep getting them popping up on my You Choob feed. There was certainly no shortage of linesiders filming and it underlines how popular the Gala was.

    Given that, I was a little surprised that the trains didn't seem to be jam packed with travellers, even with the QB set being withdrawn. I imagine that must have cost the railway a fair bit of lost income from the dining side of things. Hope not too much.

    The thing to remember with the WSR is that with 23 miles, 10 stations and 6 sets to spread people across, it rarely feels too too rammed despite the numbers on the railway as a whole being very healthy indeed. The dining was a shame to lose but the hit is small when looking at the event as a whole.
