Lets hope you are correct in what you have heard Cambrian, if 9 carriages is the limit that can SAFELY be worked in/out of Llandudno then there is no way 11 carriages should attempt to come into Llandudno.

The train is actually adevertised to go to Holyhead for the next few Sundays anyway, and will leave Llandudno to go to Holyhead and return to Llandudno this Sunday.

Lets just get one platform extended so that we can stop all this squabbling,move a few signals ,reinstate the sidings along Kings Ave,sorted,small change compared too all the South Wales work.

Quite right wrex! Just  needs the starter at platform 3 moving so the track circuit can be adjusted.  Just because some of us, like you and me, are less indulgent of Network Rail doesn't make it a squabble though.

I know not many of you buy it, but if you want an update on the station redevelopment you might be interested in seeing tomorrow's Weekly News.

So did everyone else. It didn't come in because it was too long.
I think there is a steam train in tomorrow.

There were 5 booked but Cambrian said only the ones on 29th July & 19th August would actually fit as the others were too long.
