  1. I note that this has now been postponed to the Sunday. Of late, quite a number of UK Railtours excursions have been inexplicably postponed (sometimes more than once) or have been inexplicably cancelled. Postponement of a Saturday tour to a Sunday is particularly unacceptable to anyone regularly otherwise engaged on a Sunday. This would have been understood by John Farrow in view of his being a deputy churchwarden at his local church. Wheen someone has booked a particular tour precisely because it is not on a Sunday, it is unacceptable for the tour to be switched to a Sunday. In view of the y number of alterations, postponements and cancellations in recent months, one does wonder what on earth is going on at UK Railtours. I am really sorry to find myself, as a UK Railtours supporter, striking such a critical note, but I really do think that we ought to be entitled to an explanation as to what is happening. For that matter, there is also the point that UKR is using WCRC as the operating company for a number of tours, even though John Faarrow would never use WCRC. Unless WCRC has dramatically improved, this also does seem to be a matter of concern.
