    Whilst I get the gist of your comment, it would be poor of me not to mention the amount of effort that has gone into the repaint. According to SVR News not one transfer has been used, Ronan O'brien has hand painted every single letter. Personally...

    Pre-Booked. I’ll try work out when the bookings go live and let people know. Will be the GW loose coupled vehicles. Anticipating about 160 tons of train I think

    Have you been hovering over the webpage?! Only just got updated haha. Only came out of our gala meeting a short time ago! Yes sadly it hasn’t been for the want of trying, but an external issue has meant the loco just can’t be done in time....

    Maybe if they updated the website to reflect that walk ups are now at significant risk of not being able to travel rather than saying you can buy tickets in the day and promote a way of travelling and that no longer exists.

    I note there is nothing on the website (or indeed at the ticket office) to say that the service is limited by signalling constraints at present, as you have explained. There is a single sentence about limited spaces on the website, but this is...

    Here is a picture of two of the gala stars that could have been taken today, but instead of being dated 22nd March 2026 the date is in fact the spring gala on 22nd March 1975 [ATTACH] Peter

    Latest SVR news states it became obvious early in the new year that 4150 won't be ready for the Spring Gala (despite a big push) and they are now targeting early summer. On a selfish note 4110 from the East Somerset would make a nice replacement...

    The day I visited, the two of us were virtually alone as turn up and go visitors - all the business was on the pre-booked trips. It is easy to see why the effort goes where it does. I hope it works overall for them

    It's good that we have the technology to estimate climbing speeds at locations such as Wilpshire when we are not even on the train but it is so rare to get detail, simply because, Belmond aside, there is never anything worth reporting nowadays...
