    Think you'll find that most heritage railways are like this and help out where possible, there's very much a all of one "company" ethos in my experience.

    Very noticeable that there was a younger demographic* (& lots of families) present this weekend. Obviously good news for the future, but it only takes 1 or 2 idiots - I have witnessed it at both steam and diesel events. However, the younger folk...

    Thanks to all the volunteers who make these galas possible. Especially those willing to work the late turns to produce, as mentioned above, something very special. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

    Loco crew are all fine if shook up. They know they’ve got support as/when needed. ORR/RAIB informed, it’s a case of letting the processes flow accordingly. Foxfield have not only opened their offer of travel to our customers, but assisted in...

    My heart hurts for the Churnet Valley. These sort of incidents can be broadcasted within minutes of what happened. No time for the heat to come out of the sting of the incident before it appears online.

    Its each to their own, I am disappointed I didn't get a run behind 1450 (but I did get some miles behind it at the Branchline event). But we all have our preferences and the Clayton is someone's pride and joy just as much as the autotank is. I'm...

    Well said I’ll second that especially at short notice imagine what would have happened if a class 50 had been the replacement loco, the Clayton’s were a 1960’s steam era Diesel

    I have to respond to the above. I am sure the Diesel Traction Group will be delighted with your feedback - but I must take issue with your use of the word 'neglect'. This loco was completely rebuilt around a decade ago and the volunteers went to...

    A good day yesterday. Managed to get a good couple of rides in behind the Duke, and a trip in the 'very bouncy' Pug & Judy show. It was amusing being able to see a clear view of the line from the auto-coach over the *top* of the hauling loco! Was...

    The Hall took 1450's turns and the Clayton covered the Hall. Guess it enabled time to prepare the Clayton for use.

    Said spring hanger visibly AWOL from where she was (is?) sat in the bay at Kidderminster during the afternoon. Was a bit puzzled when the Hall (which was supposed to be our next loco ex Kidderminster) crossed with us at Bewdley, but no...

    Well we went from 69 late at one point today to bang on time with the last arrival of the day! A huge thankyou to everyone who’s attended the SVR gala so far, and thankyou for putting up with some issues today. We really tried to make things go...
