In looking back over past years, it would be very helpful if the services we ran matched the services we would have been running in 2020. In 2017 our roster post stated "A weekend of normal" running with no special trains and the standard Green timetable on Saturday and Blue timetable on Sunday". So in our look back, we have to be a little more inventive as in 2020 we would be running Vintage Trains this Sunday.
The mainstay of this weekend's virtual steam service will be BR Standard 4 4-6-0 75078, the first steam service on Saturday departing Oxenhope at 11.00 for 5 round trips to Keighley and the diesel turn will have our Class 101 Diesel Multiple Unit running the services with the first train leaving Oxenhope at 09.00 on Saturday. On Sunday 75078 will be joined by LNWR 0-6-2 'Coal Tank' no. 1054 hauling the virtual vintage train service comprising coaches from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The virtual weekday service, just as in 2017, will have WD 2-8-0 90733 hauling the service.
