Northern Belle - Sunday 19th June 2011 - Routeing?

[Mcr Warrior]

Anyone know what the scheduled routeing is for this particular railtour?

Pick-ups at Crewe then Chester, so possibly it'll then be along the North Wales coast.

Understand that the train will be Class 47 diesel-hauled.

Given that it’s billed as a circular tour, I view it as unlikely that it’ll travel along the North Wales Coast on an out and back run. No idea where it’ll be headed though I’m afraid, just speculation.

The traction should be a pair of DRS class 47s, as DRS now hold the contract for the Northern Belle operation. 47790 has very recently been painted in Northern Belle Pullman livery to match the coaching stock.

Uksteam.infp (it was going to be steam hauled but now isn't) has the route as Crewe to Holyhead and return.
