    Looking at the roster , 45110 is out Saturday only (3850 both days) but is diagrammed to also be running next week. As always, check ahead as things do occur and last minute changes etc etc.

    Well the roster did get changed to swap to the open cab locos for this week, but events overtook things and GWSR now closed during the week due to extreme heat - back open again on Saturday.

    I had exactly the same experience yesterday, in spite of ringing up the GWSR on Monday to confirm that it would be Manston. Still, it was a case of making the most of it and I enjoyed my ride behind 45110, but that wasn't what I travelled 160 miles in each direction to see.
