  1. 3ABescot vond acorb's post leuk in het topic SVR General Discussion.

    And given the number of families I saw it did a good job at that, mine included at 3 generations. The Auto Train BTW was a source of much fascination from my daughter (age 13) to my mum (whose 68th birthday we celebrated on the railway). I also...

    I would have to disagree I’m afraid. Branchlines was succesful, infact very succesful. It transformed what would have been a very average weekend of revenue, in to something extraordinary. It’s given us a platform to boost the event from next...

  3. 3ABescot vond Pymothy's post leuk in het topic North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    We left the lead 37 at Goathland presumably to help work the diner back. No issue with the loco failure, as I say I accept these things happen, totally understandable.To leave a packed train standing for 25 minutes without a single person...

    I am very impressed by the distances she covers around our coastline. They seem very keen on exposeing her to as large an audiance as possible. I was on her only a fortnight ago sailing past the Ardnamurchan peninsular on her final Hebridean...

    Thanks, yes, I see. Proof of a PRoW for is a right for walkers to pass, not a change of use of the land from that authorised. Insistence on the sacrifice of a 3m width all along it, for example, sounds like to trying to do just that! Anyway,...

  7. 3ABescot vond Mark Thompson's post leuk in het topic Southwold Railway.

    That particular phrase certainly had a degree of cut-through. Having said what I said, from what I have observed of the Planning Inspectorate in practice, evidence-based pragmatism does seem to be their modus operandi.

    yes 3a bescot - indeed. the proposers have indeed shown - sworn testimony from local residents - that there has indeed been such use. sadly, we have only been there since early 2020 - we began the project at the height of covid. after all,...

    According to latest newsletter from SLL about 34028: 18th April Paddington to Penzance 19th April Penzance to Chester [No mention of layover location but Carnforth seems likely I suppose], then 25th April York to Euston [RTC's website: ".....

    Visited the SVR on Wednesday for the first time in many years. Four trains were out: the black pannier 7714 on a rake of 7 Mark 1s; a class 45 on the Gresley set; 813 / 1450 on a GWR set (with one LMS carriage in the rake) all running full line;...

    Surely that clarified the matter very well, and may be helpful to you? It means that the Right of Way decision needs to be based on hard evidence, not public or media pressure. It's some years since I was involved with the Planning Inspectorate...
