I did speak with them at Whitehaven. The only reason the Beamish/Tanfield shuttle was on was due to the Tanfield running train event & Beamish 50th Tramway. It was to connect the events so you could have time at each event. If Beamish wasn't on then she shuttle would have just been local
I too was at Whitehaven, and like I said above, the shuttles were ran like a military operation. I'm assuming that this is because they had buy in from those bringing buses well in advance and were able to timetable accordingly.
It should be a learning point that a shuttle is only provided if there's enough buy in to put a timetable together. Otherwise, like I say, it shouldn't be advertised and instead it becomes a show of static exhibits.
