    Just happened to check on the railtours page and found a private charter about to pass my house in Betchworth with a 47 at each end (47805 leading, 47855 at the rear) - an amazing coincidence of checking for updates after several days and it approaching at that moment! Does anyone have any further information on the working, which broadly followed the Belmond Surrey Hills timings from Victoria, but with some of the Northern Belle set? Photo from our garden across the valley at five minutes' notice, only now possible after the recent NR tree clearance!

    Thanks for the responses. 'Brexit Express' is also ironic - 'all stations plus numerous signal failures' might be closer to the mark!
