    Is there anything else going to be at Darlington besides Loco's?

    Little bit confused as to what you can actually see with the basic access tickets (I know, should have booked earlier for the footplate tickets on 27th). Looks like P3 and Q6 will be outside The Carriage Works and accessible. The A1, A4 and K1 appear to be outside the Locomotive Works but viewing is from an 'adjacent area'? It's then not clear whether access to the 1861 shed or a tour of Darlington Loco Works is available or if that is only with the footplate visit tickets? I'm guessing that would affect access to see 78018, J72 and the recently announced GER Y5 from the Flour Mill.

    Regards,

    Dan
