Just a short note to you to
say thanks for another great Hungarian Tour. The minor problems and rough edges
were more than compensated for by the superb traction and track covered, and not
least by the excellent company of all the tour participants over the five days
of travel. Mercia must be congratulated on a job well done in difficult
circumstances. Looking forward to next years hoped for Ukrainian extravaganza,
lets hope it comes off.

This is just a short note to
thank you and your colleagues for another excellent tour in Hungary. I can only
express my appreciation of all the hard work that must have gone on 'behind the
scenes' for everything to run so smoothly, and look forward to a similar success
next year.

I'd just like to say
that the Saturday Tour was one of the best tours I have ever been on (and I've
been on a few!!) There was a great atmosphere on board and no petty griping
about not getting this engine and not doing that piece of track. The beer was
good and the crac even better. Well done Mercia. I will be back.
Steve Robinson
A big thank you to
the Mercia lads for what must rank as their best two Belgium tours, so far.

What an interesting
weekend for those of us in Belgium. In particular the Saturday tour which
produced two bonus gronks from the PFT preserved pool and some bonus track in
the form of the stub of line 98 which even withered the Mercia crew who didn't
know we were going down it!!
Stuart Clarke
Just wanted to say thank you for
organising two excellent tours last weekend. The Fatboys and Guests enjoyed
themselves so much they are threatening to come on some more tours. Please pass
our thanks to everyone at Mercia Charters.

...thought I should drop a line to
record my thanks to you and the rest of the Mercia team for a superb pair of
tours last weekend. My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed the experiences (as I
suspect did everyone aboard) - and praise must be given to all those who put so
much hard work into ensuring that all went well on the two days. Thanks again
and we shall be certainly on for the weekend in late June!
Robin Addison
Just a little note to thank you all for
putting so much effort into the tours. The March tours made for a superb weekend
away and I'm sure it won't be long before you have to add an extra coach for all
of us desperate neds to squeeze in. Keep up the good work,

Gentlemen (and to the ladies who also
worked like slaves on the day), Just a quick e.mail to thank you all most
sincerely for all of the effort in making sure that last Saturday's Belgian tour
was a day to remember for all the right reasons. Everything seemed to go as
planned - we basically ran to time, the right engines seemed to appear and
pleased the masses and even the buffet did not run out of beer entirely! Talking
to the punters on the way back on Sunday they had nothing but praise for the way
in which Mercia operated the train.
