I apologise for not having any steam engines available this Sunday gone but we had limited drivers due to holidays and the weather was initially a bit suspect and numbers were slow in materialising. We missed a trick there because by the time we realised our mistake, it was a bit late to steam up an engine, bearing in mind that it can take up to 45 minutes to an hour to reach working steam pressure. Hopefully we will not make this mistake again.
We are running our trains on Sunday May 4th from 10am until 12.30. We will have a selection of both steam and electric trains on the track.

We have completed the new extension to our storage facilities which means we have more passenger trollies available to use so we won't have to keep changing them over.![]()
The only thing we now have to contend with is the steam trains running out of steam.![]()
Look forward to seeing you at Hurworth Grange,![]()
