    It would seem not. To be honest some of the routes are a bit strange, and the steam haulage is a bit minimal.

    Looks like steam on at Crewe, leaving the front diesel on, directly behind the tender again. :-(

    Isn't it 220 or so steam miles over Beattock and back? That's not bad. The problem for me is more the seventeen hour day and the £270 with no knowing which loco or what the fire risk status will be.
