Notes :
(1) Rod Miebs comments: The Tour was multi purpose; to visit Doncaster Works (loco
overhaul and repair shops only), Toton TMD (alighted
from Coach E onto temporary platform) and as a farewell mark of respect to
locomotive hauled trains from St. Pancras to the East Midlands and Sheffield.
(2) The Eastern Region did not give timings for the tour before the tickets and
timing sheet were sent out, hence no times are shown between Chesterfield &
Doncaster.
(3) Stapleford & Sandiacre reversals were done by 'running-round', (i.e. NOT top
'n' tail).
