RMweb Premium Chris116 Posted January 30, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 30, 2015 Are any other RMwebbers going on this train on Saturday 31st January? I will be in Coach D seat 10F so please come and say hello during the trip. This is the third year running I have been on this train. Had two good but very different trips so far so looking forward to tomorrow. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike at C&M Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Should be a spectacular trip. The forecast for Cumbria is good and the hills are covered in snow. Look forward to seeing you in Carlisle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Chris116 Posted January 31, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted January 31, 2015 I am wearing my Severn Valley Railway coat. We have just arrived at Watford Junction 6 minutes late due to diesel haulage instead of electric class 86. I understand that Les Ross, the electric loco, has a problem which is very sad. We left 8 minutes late. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Chris116 Posted January 31, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted January 31, 2015 A good trip to Carlisle. Took a couple of photos and then headed for the Woodrow Wilson pub for dinner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Triang Paul Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Was planning on doing yesterday's trip way back but couldn't. Typical. Duchess AND Snow :'( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Chris116 Posted February 1, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted February 1, 2015 Good trip but both steam and electric heating failed in my first class section. Very cold all day and had to buy a blanket for my legs for the journey home. Next door coach they had vents open because they were too hot! My last West Coast rail trip in winter as I am not willing to pay £157 to freeze. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
