Notes :
(1) Route & loco confirmation required. Andy Butler comments: the train left
London at 07.00 because of extensive engineering work. At one time running 27
minutes late. Had to be at New Holland Pier to board the 'Lincoln Castle' before
turn of the tide and sailed to Grimsby. Then boarded a fleet of 7 double-decker
coaches for Cleethorpes and the Lincolnshire Coast Light Railway.
