Looks like I will have to arrange to be off work on August 10th!

Must say the 05:00 start isn't as easly as what I thought it would be, considering that one started from Carlisle on Monday at 04:05 or something and Carlisle is nearer to the WHL than Crewe!

I reckon the confirmed timings will be quite different to the provisional timings. They arent allowing much time between some of those stops, and we all know how NR time these tours!

But the one on Monday travelled via the G&SW and Ayr to Fort William. 0500hrs start from Crewe running direct via the WCML,with 100 MPH timings (95 if there is some unwanted luggage on the rear), should even things out.
