Looking at doing the Cumbrian coast on the Loco Hauled doing the 1004 Preston to Barrow then 1138 from Barrow to Carlisle has anyone done this transfer yet and will I have a good chance of a decent seat on the 1138?

Hoping it works as I will be doing it with any luck in a couple of weeks! Apparently there is only one time the connection has not been made or held, so hopefully that will be okay :)

I did Barrow to Carlisle loco hauled last week on the 1437. Plentiful supply of seats; I had Coach C virtually to myself until Sellafield (surprise, surprise) when it became packed solid for about three stations.
