    According to the Railway Magazine, Calbourne's visit has been postponed to 2017. Also in the magazine, Birch Grove and Stepney should be visiting Haywards Heath for the 175th Anniversiry Celebrations on 17th & 18th September. Birch Grove may go by rail. Some info on the event http://www.haywardsheathlive.org.uk/175th-anniversary-celebrations/

    Steam On The Underground bookazine http://www.classicmagazines.co.uk/product/5487 Reading the preview on the Sainsburys website it features all SOTU events in 2013-2015. Anybody seen it in a shop?

    The latest Heritage Railway Magazine has an article about the Dean Forest/Flour Mill Gala in July. It says that L150 and Met 1 won't be there, as they are currently pencilled in for Steam On The Underground runs.

    I see members of the LTM Patron Circle can ride on a steam train from Ruislip to Ealing Common in the summer next year. http://www.ltmuseum.co.uk/assets/downloads/pdfs/2016spring-summerPatronsevents.pdf I'm assuming that this would otherwise be a empty stock movement between Ruislip Depot and Ealing Common Depot or the LTM Acton Depot.

    The Autumn Steam Gala visitors have been announced: Peckett 0-4-0ST 'Teddy' and Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST 'Colin McAndrew'. I wonder what they will do.

    The year would be 1995. When LU bought 3 MK 2b TSOs from NSE. The coaches were in NSE livery at Steam On The Met 1995. I believe they were also used in NSE livery on the Jubliee Line, as part of Stanmore Depot Open day in September that year. They were repainted into Metropolitan Maroon by Steam On The Met 1996.

    Just looked at the ticket site. The 11:01 from Harrow on Saturday has sold out. The 13:10 has nearly sold out on both days, with a couple of First class Chesham set tickets avilable on the Saturday and a handful of Standard tickets on the Sunday.
