Notes :
(1) Route confirmation required. Andrew King confirms there was a short stop at
Barrow-in-Furness on the return leg.
(2) Andrew King questions the use of 40120 on this leg of the tour; his notes
were that 40172 hauled the train from Barrow-in-Furness to Seascale and return
(at least as far as Wigan where he left the train)
