TERMS & CONDITIONS General Conditions The Steam Dreams Rail Co. (hereon referred to as ‘Steam Dreams’) will use its best efforts to ensure that the proposed locomotives, coaching stock, route and times, all of which are dependent on third parties, run as advertised but we reserve the right to amend or cancel any part of the tour at any time. Steam Dreams cannot accept any responsibility for the action of third parties and strongly recommends that all passengers take out travel/cancellation insurance. Charges apply should passengers need to cancel or postpone their trip for whatever reason, whether their plans change due to ill-health, travel issues or weather conditions. To avoid disappointment or unnecessary expense, passengers are advised not to pre-book transport links or accommodation, unless the costs associated with cancelling these arrangements are covered by the passenger’s own insurance, as Steam Dreams cannot be held liable for additional costs incurred in passenger’s travel plans.

Timings Final timings and platform numbers are confirmed by Network Rail leading up to each trip, advertised times in brochures and online are best estimates.

Steam Dreams will use its best endeavours to ensure the boarding/ alighting stations listed in its brochure and website are those which are used on the day. Occasionally it is not possible for Network Rail’s final timings to include one or more of the stations we have requested. In these circumstances, Steam Dreams will take responsibility for arranging travel at no additional cost to/from passenger’s chosen boarding/alighting station to an alternative station where the train stops (usually by service train or road coach).

Steam Availability Steam Dreams will use its best efforts to provide steam traction on trips rostered for steam haulage, for the sector(s) advertised as such, but this cannot be guaranteed. On occasion, a diesel or electric locomotive may be substituted, mainly due to fire risk, drought, route restrictions or locomotive failure. All steam locomotives are subject to a Fitness to Run (FTR) exam 24 hours prior to running on the main line, which means it is sometimes necessary for a substitute

to be made at the last minute. On some tours it may be necessary for a part of the journey to be diesel or electric hauled; where possible this will be made clear at the time of booking but it may be necessary for changes to be made at a later stage for operational reasons.

If, for reasons beyond our control, a trip that was due to feature steam haulage has no steam locomotive for the duration of the trip a partial refund of £15 in Premium Standard, £20 in First Class, £25 in Premier Dining and £30 in Pullman Style Dining may be offered.

Alternatively, we may offer a discount for treble this amount to be used against a future trip. The nature of the compensation must be agreed on the date of the trip, otherwise the discount will be issued.

Bookings made wholly using a Steam Dreams voucher, third party voucher or discount with no additional payments are not eligible for a refund and may only be offered the discount option.

Diesel or Electric Assistance On steam hauled trips, a diesel or electric engine may be included in the train in addition to the steam locomotive and at times be required to provide assistance; no compensation will be offered in this instance.
