Ok, so who's going and who's not?

And if not why? If you are, who are you taking with you?

Also, what's everyone looking forward to seeing whilst your there?

Look forward to your responses!

Yeah I'm hoping to catch a few 'drags' towards York before the event starts! Hope to see you all there!

I wanted to go but can't, because I'll be out of the country :(

So I hope it'll be repeated in future, if it's a success.

I thought the day tickets were very reasonably priced for what they offer, including cab access, rides, etc.

I'll most likely be there for one or two days.
With work but I hope to have some leisure time as well :)

Well, they did one once before in 2004 to celebrate 200 years since the birth of railways, and the Penydarren locomotive. I had a cracking day out at that one, and I'd like to attend this one as well but I don't know whether I'm going to be busy at that point in June or not.

I suppose these events have a precedent in the anniversary cavalcades that took place in 1975 and 1925 as well. I should think that there'll be another Railfest type event again in 2025.
