From Realtime Trains, passing times for 34067 Tangmere (+diesel) and 60163 Tornado (unassisted) and the difference in minutes. Tornado only 3 1/4 minutes behind Tangers passing Milnthorpe.

I had hoped to complete my report of a terrific trip today, but someone has robbed me of an hour. The rest of the family has gone out leaving me with some jobs to do and as it has been raining heavily Maisie can't/won't go out so wants plenty of...

She drew quite a lot of attention at Stafford amongst the locals! Our steward handed out at least 2 Vintage Trains tour brochures to people on the platform - nowt better than a gleaming steam loco to publicise your business!!

Wow, what a day for those who love main line steam at its best. We passed 8,000 miles behind the A1 during the day and we passed 150,000 miles of haulage since my records started in 1978. And what a day to pass these landmarks. Enormous thanks to...

Breva - and all who have already responded - our thanks. i doubt that SCC have often had such a number. it all helps - presumably - with their decision to pass it on to the district council planners, which might be good for us. lots more time...

OK, I did it, I found the model in the description of the video (need to scroll down), used the template, and added a few extra comments. Sent the letter as an attachment to an email. When the GWSR bought the line shortly after closure and...

You definitely picked well. VT are one of the few operators that are still organising real enthusiast tours, probably only 2 or 3 a year. They know what we want and deserve our support. At the end of the day it was the catalyst behind the setting...

Another shot at a very busy Stafford, having run along the slow lines from Crewe, at Stafford it was crossed into platform 1 because the customer lifts were out of action on platform 4, the usual slow line platform for southbound charters, before...

It was an excellent day out. I've not done a steam tour (in this country) for quite a while now so this was a good one to pick. Great performance from Tornado even if there were a few pathing stops and slow running at times fitting in on a busy...
