Thats a good point, 1807 has a 1980s Bradford blind in it, and it may just have something that starts "Bolton" on it. 1807 should be there also, subject to...
Yes, I think Bolton Junction should be there somewhere on Bradford blinds, sure I've seen it before on 601/602's that ended there at peak times. Did 5024 end...

I've spoken with the organisers, and 1807 might in fact do an unannounced trip (but if people are around, obviously I'll let you know). Shall we have a group...
