G-BOAF Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) Can any point to a website for upcoming Steam railtours? UKSteam does not appear to have been updated since May, and it is very thin towards the end of the year, and there are scheduled tours which are not listed http://uksteam.info/tours/trs19.htm Any other suggestions Edited August 28, 2019 by G-BOAF Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
89A Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 At the moment the only way I can see is to go through all the tour operators sites and cross reference with Realtime Trains to check for timings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the guy who ran the site is not well. If you can find that thread there if reference to another site there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
84B Oxley Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 http://www.railwayherald.co.uk/railtours/ Will do the trick for you. HTH Jeff 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold adb968008 Posted August 30, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Railadvent.co.uk too, but Herald includes movements and non-steam. i hope we dont lose UKsteam, it’s a great archival resource. The new sites don’t seem to offer this, there could be a gap in future research losing this. Edited August 30, 2019 by adb968008 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatC Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I've made loads of use of the UK Steam site and noticed earlier this year that it wasn't being updated. Try http://www.railtourinfo.co.uk/diesel.html as an alternative. Despite the web address it lists steam hauled railtours as well. it also links to real time trains for timings. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-BOAF Posted June 14, 2021 Author Share Posted June 14, 2021 Really struggling with the absence of UKSteam.info I quite want to see 60103 out of KGX on thursday morning but railtourinfo.co.uk is NOT providing a working link to timings. I haven't seen a steam locomotive for about 18 months (static or working) so this is a MUST SNIFF.... Can someone help???!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyRule1 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Steam Dreams state Thursdays trip has been postponed due to issues with the timetable offered by Network Rail. This might be why there is a lack of info. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Mike_Walker Posted June 14, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 14, 2021 Timings for any trip booked for 60103 are not made public until the day or late on the preceding day in an attempt to control trespass incidents by the general public. RTT is the best source plus the railtourinfo site mentioned above. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
