Can anyone advise me the times for the "Mail Trains" (Class 325 if i recall)? I'm goin to Carlisle in Mid august and hope to see some... Another one is the Workington Docks stuff? Does anyone have paths for those trains?

Cheers,

Workington trains vary hugely. At the minute they are booked down Carlisle - Workington at around 6 on MON/WED/FRI. they return north through Carlisle at about 13:15 on the same days but they are temperamental depending on whether they come across from Tees Dock. On Fridays there are 2 china clay trains, one goes down to Workington Docks at about 15:15 following the 15:12 to Preston but has been known to run early. It returns at a booked half 7 but can be up to an hour early. Hope that helps, Steven (Carlisle regular)
