For my birthday, my wife bought me a DVD of the "Steam on the Met" excursions and I was wondering when they finally stopped (and why)

Also, does anything similar happen these days on the Met?

Cheers

The last "steam on the met" event was in 2000. I've heard many reasons for not continuing, but perhaps the 2 most plausible are:-

a) not specified in Metronet's contract, so no financial incentive
b) inability to operate them due to the amount of weekend engineering works
