Paul Cartwright, Chair of Performance said, "following an absolute soaking at Somer Sounds, Revolution were definitely back on track at Barnsley with their Rock and Rail production. Revolution have a suitable pedigree to take their rightful place in our higher divisions after a cracking performance which received consistent evaluations from the judges across a number of music and visuals captions. Well done to all members and staff on your achievement".

Corps Director Andrew Mitchell said, "We are all delighted for the members, it’s a testament to the hard work we’ve put in, especially the rookie drum line and colourguard section. The new class will be an excellent challenge, our aim now is to make Finals, which would cap off a fantastic season… Rock & Rail !………. "
