jhb171achill Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I've to go to Belfast by train tomorrow. Are any of them guaranteed to be DDs? Second choice an ICR. Maybe the 12:50?
jhb171achill Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I've booked the 12:50. Fingers crossed it isn't a 2-car 26 class towing a tara wagon. 1
