• (Total confusion), There’s an engine called Mayflower! Then separate from (Golden Hind). We (Steam crew) missed Southerns link to a warship hauled Paddington bound in 1960? Now Collets Castle Mount Edgcombe brings Mayflower West? Wish they put a headboard on and not just the tour group name or something! (For the benefit of the older folk…

And oil running thin, One of the many that just needed a drink and a…

    • (Other Groups)! I sit on my boat pondering the many Steam Heritage engines to pass under this bridge! Plymouth, Par, Penzance bound? When i see a head bobbing, And legs franticly paddling?

The Inbound leg shows as cancelled due to late arrival of…

      • We havent had anything official confirmed, but it ran into an issue at Warrington Bank Quay and instead of continuing to Preston, they used the Class 37 on the rear to drag it back to Crewe
