Railmotor Trips to Looe on 4 November Cancelled (11 November Trips Still Running)

Owing to circumstances outside the control of the Great Western Society, the operation of Rail Motor No.93 on the Looe branch on Sunday 4 November 2012 has been cancelled. The Society expresses its very sincere apologies for this cancellation, particularly at such short notice.

The diesel allocated to haul the Railmotor from Bodmin Road to Liskeard failed. The back-up replacement diesel also failed. Despite best efforts by West Coast Railways, First Great Western and Network Rail no suitable replacement locomotive could be provided. Operating restrictions placed on running the Railmotor on Network Rail means that there is no alternative method of running the Railmotor from Bodmin Road to Liskeard.

The decision to cancel operations on Sunday 4 November was taken by West Coast Railways who have admitted responsibility. At all times the Society were kept informed, and took immediate action to inform ticket holders of the cancellation. West Coast have given assurances that the trips scheduled for Sunday 11 November will proceed as planned. A decision on trips to replace those cancelled will be made on Tuesday 6 November and this information will be published here as soon as we have it. If it is possible to re-schedule the event then the tickets you have purchased will be valid on that day. If it is not possible to re-arrange then your ticket monies will be refunded in full. Any ticket holders who wish to have a full refund before it is known whether a re-scheduled event can be arranged, should contact the Society by e-mail at: marketing@didcotrailwaycentre.org.uk.
