Notes :
(1) Ran in conjunction with the Rickmansworth (Canal) Festival. Page created from pre-tour timings released by London Transport Museum. A free heritage bus service, 'including the Museum's iconic Routemaster RM1', was scheduled to be making journeys between Rickmansworth Station and Rickmansworth Festival at Batchworth Lock.
(2) Due to the tight reversal times it is likely 12 ran top-n-tail with another loco?
