It adds 60miles on a one way to go via Brum and Lincoln, 10 miles extra going via Brum alone.

I'm sure we can work something out!

Petrol tokens are not a problem. We'll work something out nearer the time. Seems daft bringing FWD toss with just me in it.

There's also a model railway exhibition / museum nearby, if anyone wants a double-dose.

cheers

Ugh. I might be bailing. Date problems.

Or I might be showing up with 4 doors for my 164 in the back. What time are we aiming for? If it's noon or so, I can probably get there.

cheers

Ok, lets make this official.

10am in the car cark for a 10.30am entry into the museum.

Anyone who arrives later and finds several Volvos in the car park but no owners lurking nearby will find said owners gawping at trains.
