Pathfinder Tours 2025

Nice to see a pair of 37s, and a blue and grey set of carriages. Saturday'sHeart Of Wales Rambler south of Leominster on yesterday. I gather from Railway Herald that the locos were 37516 and 37668.

 

Taken during the leg stretch at Llandrindod.

 

Given that Pathfinder Tours are no unforuntately under WCR's what do we think will run th Exe-Parrett tour to Exeter in November, I assume that it will be one of the Black 5's like the Royal Duchy?

After 53 years, Pathfinder have called it an innings, and what an innings it has been from Peter Watts, and I’m proud to have done my part to support in these twilight years.

Finale sold out in under an hour…

Nothing it is cancelled due to pathing issues, presumably the ongoing reduced timetable.

 

Interestingly the Pathfinder social media mentioned 54 minutes......

Good to see the usual attention to detail from Pathfinder

And also the posts on various forums proclaiming a sold out tour, yet normally silence on cancellations and other issues with tours
