|
Loco's in service:
WD 2-10-0 90775
USA S160 2-8-0 5197
J15 0-6-0 65462
N7 0-6-2 69621
Plus visiting loco - Standard Tank 2-6-4T 80135
| Quote: | As well as our summer visitor, the American S160 locomotive, we also have another visiting engine for the Gala weekend only. British Railways 4MT Standard Tank 2-6-4T No 80135 will be visiting us from the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. Click here to view information about the locomotive on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway's website.
Our timetable includes non-stop express trains, double heading of locomotives, parcels trains and mixed traffic trains.
Also: For this weekend only, we have been granted special permission to operate the Weybourne to Holt section of the line under the "Staff & Ticket" method. This allows us to make use of both platforms at Holt Station at the same time, resulting in more operational flexibility and therefore a more intensive timetable.
Not only will our newly refurbished Gresley Buffet Car be on some trains each day, but this year we will be offering all-day breakfasts on selected trains as well! See the timetable for exact times.
We will also be organsing shed tours at Weybourne, allowing visitors to see first-hand the new facilities and some of the work being undertaken on locomotives and carriages at the moment. |
Sounds like a good gala... anyone going?
