Private charter (steam) - 12/1/06

Post by JonPotter »

I've got uncnfirmed repost of a private charter on the Surrey Hill's lunch route on Thursday, using Ducess of Sutherland

I can't get http://www.uksteam.info to find it (except the light engine runs) - can someone please confirm it - maybe baggy if he still uses the forums?

Brilliant. Thanks.

I take it that's the same as normal then basically?

Sadly I won't be able to see it - I've got to be in school at 1.30pm :(

But a friend of mine will - so we'll see what happens!
