  • Photo page updated yesterday evening.
  • Wednesday 7th April's Compass Tour to Carlisle with DRS 47s has now been postponed until Saturday 12th June this year, this caused by the possibility of the railway signallers strike in the peak times from Tuesday 6th April for four days. Even if the strike is called off, the tour will not be re-instated to the original date now as the decision had to be taken today to postpone the tour so that all passengers could be written to in time, taking into consideration the two bank holiday dates this weekend too!

Government funding does however continue into May, to allow the Northern services to still be free until and including Sunday 2nd May. The DRS provided train does not operate on a Saturday or a Sunday. The DfT have spent £963,000 funding the extra services which began at the end of November 2009.
