However, it is anticipated that repairs will be completed in time for 75078 to resume duties on 1st July and will be the main steam locomotive Saturday and Sunday and throughout the week.
Sunday sees the third of our 'Vintage Train' days when TVR 0-6-2T no. 85 will head the ‘main’ Vintage Set which will be formed of four coaches, comprising coaches from theLancashire and Yorkshire Railway Trust and Vintage Carriages Trust:
