Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

This Saturday the steam train Sir Nigel Gresley will be going North early on Saturday passing Finsbury Park at 7:15am and Harringay, Hornsey and Alexandra Palace (7:19am) soon after heading for York.

The return the journey is finishing at Finsbury Park at 9:11pm so a close-up night time view will be possible for all.

Lots of links for you!

Try this link, direct from the Real Time Trains website, for the return journey:  http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/U54927/2014/03/29/advanced , which confirms it   should  arrive at Finsbury Park at 2111. You can of course check on its progress from York (whence it departs at 1536) using that link, to know when actually to look out for it. After Finsbury Park, it will go on to its base at Southall via Camden Road and Gospel Oak, rather than reversing at Hornsey and via the curve at Harringay, which is how it will get to Kings Cross in the morning - but around 0600!

Thanks, that is the link that I tried earlier which was blank, but now works! and thanks for the extra info.

What a wonderful sight an a beautiful clear morning - here's the snap from my mobile!
