Railway engineering works potentially scupper a trip to Darlington Beer Festival
| 00:00 - 00:03 | Cleveland Branch are heading from Middlesbrough |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | Durham Branch directly from Durham |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | Tyneside & Northumberland Branch from Newcastle |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Sunderland & South Tyneside Branch from South Shields |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | and North West Yorkshire Branch from Richmond. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Excellent, I'm looking forward to a good |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | knees up on Saturday. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Mein Fuhrer |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | Unfortunately |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | There are no trains running to Darlington on Saturday. |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | There is engineering work taking place in that area. |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | If you are part of the beer festival committee, please leave the room. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | What on earth were they thinking??!! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | Organising a beer festival during engineering works!! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | Do they not realise we cannot now get there by train?? |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | Now it's all about getting a rail replacement bus, |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | so no good sing along on the Northern Rail |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | service to North Road Station. |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | I may as well have not bothered getting a |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | new tick book for all the new beers!! |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | Mein Fuhrer it's engineering works at Darlington Station. |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | It can't take them that long to fix a piece of railway line!! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | Mein Fuhrer, but they are only charging £1 entry to the festival. |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | I don't care how much they are charging!! |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | A rail replacement bus. |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | That will take ages to get there |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | what with all the stops and being stuck in |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | traffic and having to sit next to smelly passengers. |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | I was looking forward to a sing song on the train |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | to North Road Station and off into the festival, |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | get drunk on all these new beers and |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | mark them off in my new tick book. |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | All these festivals down the years |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | trips to festivals in Durham, Edinburgh, Newcastle and York. |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | Lovely ales, and dancing to the live music. |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | And here they are now not having had |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | a festival for a number of years and they decide to have it |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | when there are engineering works on the railway. |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Surely there was plenty of |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | advance warning about the engineering works so |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | they could have it at another time. |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | He's only upset as he won't be able to try the Mithril Hoptown. |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I have been a member of the branch for a long time. |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | I have every glass and programme from the festivals held at |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | the Arts Centre. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | They owe me. |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | Right, I need one of you to visit the Go North East website |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | and download the X15 timetable. |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | So the Grey Horse Beer Festival in Consett it is .. |
