Funny you should say that, Fred.
I happen to be a Kingfisher Railtours steward and I say they're a bloody great company and you can't really fault them!
My last day with them was the Golden Arrow from Nottingham to Folkestone Harbour with 34067 Tangmere on the 5th April and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it and they never fail to pull out all the stops to put the passenger first.
My next outing with them will be on the 31st May Nottingham - Blaenau Ffestiniog with a pair of tractors.
They're well worth booking with, Fred. Must be one of the best companies out there.
Just a shame that on the 1st June (obviously, the day after) I'm doing London Waterloo - Exeter St David's

The stock is very nice. Well, the mk2 I was in was. They offer 2+1 seating even to standard passengers.
We went with Kingsfisher on Cumbrian Mountain Express on 5th July and paid £450 to sit in the Pegasus Pullman. Although the actual tour was OK, despite them changing the set down from Carlisle to Appleby, the service was the absolute worst I have ever ever received.
Have written a long letter of complaint to both KF and Railgourmet (caterers). Kingsfisher are yet to respond - I await with earnest! :cry:

I saw the train at Folkestone Harbour on the 5th of April, and I must say, it looked impressive :grin:
Seems a great company to me!
