Just saw this thread, what a cool idea...! A question, I know the trip is no charge, and thanks BAM for organising/hosting, but will there be charges for the food and drinks on board? Is it BYO?

This thread needs a better topic heading, as I have been ignoring it, although once something goes to 3 pages you take a look to find out what all the fuss is about.

Thanks. I was chatting to my father inlaw about it and he asked if I know what engine it was. As I mentioned he is a massive train fan.

Leumas, people are welcome to bring what they want, byo is ok. Drinks from my bar will be on the house but keep in mind because of storage space limits it will be "beer" or "wine" or what ever spirits happen to be on board. Don't forget in my invite post I ask every one to put something in the hat for those worse off coming up to Christmas. (I'm talking notes rather than loose change by the way. I aim to make sure everyone has a good time and my only hope is my passengers are generous to the less fortunate)

You'll have to buy you're own lunch from the pub or the local shops

I think that goes without saying, considering what a trip like this would cost normally.

nlagalle, 99% of people get it and I'd think people that use AFF are above average, but nothing surprises me with the last 1%.
