The full itinerary has not arrived as yet, but as we all know, little goes exactly to plan, so expect changes even up to the last minute. On the return journey the boys will be asked to contact home at a convenient point so that they can tell parents/collectors a much more precise arrival time.

The group is booked on the 1.52pm from Durham train which should arrive in Leeds at 3.08pm. Both outward and return journeys are direct routes with no changes at other stations!

 

Make sure you have filled in and returned the medical form stating any allergies etc.
