    You're probably right, I suspect its going to be quite the PITA to run that having to reverse at Ravenglass/Sellafield then faff at Carnforth to head north again, I hope its still possible for those dong it to hit the 24 hour target!

    Quite a bit of slack in last year's schedule - left Ravenglass (heading north) at 1930 but didn't reach Craigendoran Jn until 0047. Fort William booked arrival was 0425 - and in the end was nearly an hour late.

    BR Class 7MT No. 70000 Britannia passes through Hartford on a test run from Crewe to Carnforth on Wednesday 17th June 2026. Its train consists of a motley collection of coaches and vans with a pair of class 20s on the rear.
