AFAIK, it is produced by volunteers who are railfans. Even so, this
isn't exactly a minor error like the misreporting of a train number.
Reporting about a non-existant event really reduces the credibility of
Newsrail's other reports. The other report is an out of date statement
that shouldn't be published in the August issue when SWRail and WCR have
been using it for the past few months with Y112.
