Diesel Running Event - Saturday 09 January 2010 to Sunday 10 January 2010

PAGE UPDATED 9th JAN 2010 (5pm)

The weekends diesel event continues despite the weather. On Sunday, planned locomotives are D8098, D5401 and D123 plus the DMU. The Black 5 is in traffic as is standard 2 78019

One of the steam locomotives is planned to work top and tail with the diesel locomotive to provide constant train heating.

We'll keep operating and running what we can, while we can! With more snow forecast and temperatures remaining sub zero we will try to keep operational disruption to a minimum.

Thanks for bearing with us in very difficult weather conditions and thanks for your support.

TIMETABLES ARE NOW AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD
