Strange that they havent posted any ecs times/
Another question on the Diesel hauled railtours site it said that another WCRC machine was mooted for this tour????

May or may not be top and tailed south as there is a reversal at Guildford.

The ECS Times are from Solihull - Tyseley TMD and return...I wouldn't get too excited!

Diesel leads Southbound, Steam on the return with loco dead on rear.

I think the steam is DOR on the way there...not sure though.

Nunney Castle is at the Mid Hants so will be only on the Northbound section.

Yeah kinda need them as we may not see the tour with passengers as solihull is a tad rubbish for shots but I think I'll give it a try.
They should so bung a 50 on this

5029 working hard with 47773 on the back,sounded fantastic.


On the the point raised,50049 is booked for a charter on 16th Oct,with D444 Exeter.
