Don't know many details but there has been a derailment at the Grindleford end of Totley Tunnel, therefore the Tin Bath tour has been diverted, latest rumour is that it is going via Stockport, Crewe, Derby and then to Sheffield

No times known yet

The only thing I can pick up is that it will be late into Sheffield, due to diverting round by Crewe, Lichfield, Derby and then up to Sheffield.

I don't think anything is known past Sheffield, 1 source says it may be diverted via Moorthorpe to avoid pathing problems,

Will post any updates
