If you haven't heard of it, clearly you're not following some of us on Twitter :P
http://www.indietracks.co.uk/
basically the finest festival happening this summer bar none. 23rd-25th July, somewhere in a field in Derbyshire with MOTHERFUCKING STEAM TRAINS.
(yes, I'm an anorak, so shoot me.)
I know some of you have mentioned coming, so who actually is?

The prospect of unlimited steam train rides so does it for me.

I know Hannah said the hotels in Ripley are all sold out, and as camping is a ridiculous £75 for 3 nights(between two people) you could stay in the travelodge near pride park or any other cheap hotels in notts/derby if they decide to run a coach. http://indietracksblog.blogspot.com/201 ... -from.html

sadly it looks like camping is still the cheapest. however, it's only an extra tenner pppn for the camping if it's on the same pitch, so we could get a big tent and stuff a few of us in there to bring the price down a bit?

I didn't realise Hannah, it would be nice to all be together. if we can get some numbers and figure it out it would be easier :)

s'what I was thinking when I made the thread. If we get four people in a tent, that's £45 per night, barely more than a tenner each. I don't know if they have limits on how many people in there, or if they've changed it for Indietracks (cause they've put the price up for it), might be an idea for someone to give them a call or drop them an email when we've got an idea of numbers and get a quote?

I've just checked the East Coast website too and I can book my train down now, what would be the best time to come down?

Is that true!? That there is the possibility of that?
