does anyone no if the road run is still going ahead?

Yes, road run is still on, leaving Saunders Yard, Stotfold at 10am heading to Arlesey and then back to Stotfold stopping at White Horse in Arlesey at 11ish, then back to Chequers and the Crown in Stotfold before finishing at the Fox and Duck where there will be entertainment provided in the evening.

Yes it is coal just been loaded my son is taking the coal as i have to work.:(

Hi All

As i have never been to this road run before where is the best place to see the engines pass?

Happy new year

Buster

Work , just remember to save some coal for 3 days at Bedford ;)

Buster

As i'm usually on one of the engines i'm not sure but there seems to be a lot of photographers who stand on the gradient on the Arlesey new road heading towards Letchworth. Stop at the first pub stop in Arlesey and people will be able to direct you.

Matt

PS i see you come from my home town!

Hi Matt

How far away is this from Saunders yard, just so i can get a rough idea of what time i should get there for?

Buster

Popped in on our way home from visiting family on the coast. Great turnout of people and a nice bunch of engines too.

Love this one - she sounds super and looked spot-on with the van in tow.

Great to meet up with engines and friends.
Well done to those who were out on the run.
