can anyone please tell me of any steam tours or freight workings that pass through Haywards Heath station? I Have recently taken an interest in freight workings especcially some of the older loco's but I don't mind the modern scene, before I wasn't too keen but have decided to expand my range of photography. It is by chance if I happen to hear of any steam tours passing through and I missed one recently as well as on a few other occassions. Any help on any freight or steam passing through soon would be very helpful.

Thank you!

Yes, from Ardingly. I know one runs on 1 Thursday every 2 weeks, noticed it as i get a London train every Thursday. Unsure if the aggregate from Purley and the ones from Three Bridges/Crawley run through HHE or not.

Full times won't be available until much nearer the time, keep an eye on this site as they will appear there when published.

Thanks very much for the link. I shall check up on it again nearer the time, and hope to see this steam charter when it runs.

Which days is the aggregates train to Ardingly cancelled this week please? I can only see it on Thursday as I am away from Monday - Wednesday of this week.
