    The web site says that timetable is based upon the Green timetable but doesn't say what differences or additions there are, if any. Does anyone know if there are any differences?
    Also does anyone know what locos are on the roster?
    Thank you.
    Alan.

    It is basically the green timetable, save a few minutes either way on the last trains. Locos in use are 35006, 7903, the 2 37s, 45 and 20.

    I was a bit confused this morning! Not much choice of locos at the moment, only 7820 and 7903 steamable and we need 2 locos every day until the new year bar tomorrow. And the second carriage set down to 7 carriages as well, definitely need that winter maintenance period!

    Not just loco rosters chopping and changing, I'm now TTI on train 2 on Sunday so say hello if you're around, and behind 35006 which has suddenly reappeared on the roster.

    A frustrating day but a rewarding night... 35006 stands at Broadway with the last train of the day back to Toddington.
