Stewarding for Santa 2013...

Hi guys. Today I was helping with the stewarding jobs on our first 'Santa Special's of the 2013 season. Tickets are selling very well and I would advise those who have not yet bought any but wish to, to get in now before its too late. With 3803 at the head of the train, the 'Santa Express' made two return journeys to Shenton and back today. The first day, as always, is a 'practise day' and from now on we will be running at least 4 or 5 trains per operating day right up until Christmas Eve, except on December 23rd when there will only be 3. I had a very enjoyable day, particularly on the 2pm train. I like interacting with the public and its always nice to hear nice comments about our railway. Off to Nuneaton Station tonight, there are hooters in the distance. Best Regards, Sam...
