Thank You

Jordy may know, as he's a ticket inspector there

Some info on the diesel gala is here:

They're currently using a pair of 20s, so I'd expect them to feature. They also have a 47.

According to the posters, 2x20, 2x47, a 31 and the 03 on driver experience.

20227 added to the line up with the threat of possible triple headed 20s

Also possibility of 03144 and 20166 TnT on the Freight Only section from Leeming Bar - Swale Bridge

Sadly due to an incident (to put it lightly) 31271 will no longer feature.

Any idea what the ticket prices will be for this event, I couldn't find any mention on the website?

I suspect this will depend on what is running - 20227 and 47798 haven't made it to the railway yet and it is unclear if they will actually get there.

Thank you for that, fingers crossed they make it in time.

Cheers for now, Alan.

the current timetable really is a beast... doesn't show what locos are on what...

Don't be silly...
WNXX forum post indicate that 47798 is no longer attending and 20227 may move in today. However this is highly unlikely due to the tour up to Whitby.

None of the visiting locos have made it unfortunately. Presumably normal prices will apply.
