    Anyone booking their place on this rail tour from Woking to York. You can have four hours looking around the NRM. Should be a good day out? I can’t believe it’s only £42.50 and the times seem very good leaving at 7.00am and returning back to Woking at 21.10.

    Is there a Diesel website with engine movements/Tours with which Diesel such as http://www.uksteam.info/ ??? It would certainly help to tie in movements with which Steam/Diesel/Electric on a said date.

    I didn't think any rail tour company is going to run a steam tour from Woking to York and return for £42.50.
