    Yes, something has happened! A few years ago weight restrictions were introduced due to rail wear. Those rails have now been replaced so larger locos can run again.

    I think “serious financial trouble” is too much, but it is not a secret that for many years the Plc has run at a loss, cushioned by transfers from the Society membership subscriptions and donations. There is no imminent crisis brewing, but...

    I'm not altogether surprised at the pattern - going out for a restaurant grade meal deep in the country is something I'd be reluctant to do if I weren't staying within walking distance after the meal. I've done it before, and the drive home...

    I think what you need to do is use your trusty Leica to take a photo of the ticket on your computer, then rush the film round to the local Boots and get a print made of the ticket. Simples! Beings serious, I suspect that these days a...

    Look back earlier (probably a lot earlier!) in this thread! I have put forward exactly the same point and suggested ways to try to revive the concept of the railway and its surroundings as a destination in its own right, rather than as being a...

    You're assuming that they will visit Goathland anyway, and the train is chosen as the mode of transport. My experience of staying in the area when the children were younger was that the trip and the destination were part of a package, with both...
