    They've got 2 SKs out on loan to the GWSR (and I can't really understand why the GWSR need them).

    A rather busy weekend last Saturday and Sunday. I spent it on 828 on the Saturday and it gave me the opportunity to let the Fireman drive all day and the Cleaner fire. Something very positive and a joy to watch was the Cleaner who had his Passed...

    I was on the Lakelander yesterday and it looks like only 32 seats are actually 2nd class in the buffet car, all the rest are 1st class and premier dinning

    There's was still some 1954 rail on the Welsh valley lines up until the recent transformation Transport for Wales have been doing. I saw the data!
