European Railroad Discussion > West Coast Railways suspends the Ft William to Mallaig JacobiteDate: 03/20/24 11:44 West Coast Railways suspends the Ft William to Mallaig Jacobite Author: 86235 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cz7z6xnpyn6o
WCRC has not fitted central door locking to their fleet of Mk1 stock. They applied for an exemption, which was refused. They are appealing, but in the mean time the service will remain suspended.

They have had ample time to fit out the coaches as required, or put in place a program for the work to take place. Other operators such as Locomotive Services Ltd seem to have managed.

I think that's the view of many.
