Furthermore from looking at there Page, if Today's Run out wasn't well supported by Enthusiasts, then the Group won't be doing anymore Runs out with 4710, so Today may of been the last chance to have a ride on 4710, as the Owners don't allow for the Public to have a ride about when it is at the Bus Rallies, which to me is a great shame.
I didn't know about it until the last minute really. I'd have loved a ride out and would have paid good money for it. I'm sure if they put a post on here in future, they'd be able to get a bit of support they wouldn't normally get.
