    Suggestions on WNXX that Inter City may be wound down . No tours for 2026 so far and 2025 seemed to have had a number of cancellations . Very different market to steam tours so maybe not found a niche yet

    Appears to have gone horribly wrong. I'm not on it, but according to reports elsewhere the Badger failed right at the start so the tour is now a Class 90 and only going to Carlisle, not Glasgow.

    Yes - stopped at Warrington Bank Quay according to a friend on board. Such a shame after its successful tests in recent weeks.
