87 isn't available one day because it is working a race the train special. 130 is still not back in traffic presumably 134 is also not available/no crew or not ideal with the fire risk. Diesels are being used to mitigate fire risk and depending...

That's possibly more a reflection of your lack of understanding (and/or utilisation of stereotypes) than anything else. A drought can be well defined as a loss/absence of expected resources (less rain in Britain's maritime climate), rather the...

They always used to leave a carriage unbooked for pay on the day, first come first served.

The diesel was manned by the steam driver certainly on Sunday & Monday. Having had a very good chat with @Foxontour of this parish, who was extremely kind and hospitable to myself and my dad on Monday (many thanks once again!) - volunteers and...

You could always ask nicely on here, you will very likely get a reply, I certainly did.

Im in the area at the moment, for most of the week the backdrop has been smoke from a smouldering Cairngorms, clearly visible from Aviemore station itself and all along the line from the train. The road through Glenmore and up to Cairngorm...

Not quite. The trial will prove the sustainability really. If it’s a success that makes the right ammount of money then it can be looked at from a more paid staff type operation which of course is a game changer. I think it will be well patronised

I think some credit ought to be given that the way this has been set up and the due diligence done means it is financially worthwhile for the railway . Gus and all involved will have taken a very measured approach to this trial and the potential...

I must admit, almost every other heritage railway is clear about which services will be diesel hauled, both pre-planned and short notice, be it for fire risk or failures. Most publish a loco roster at least a week in advance...

You yourself liked the post by @MikeParkin65 whose family '..got fed up with the prospect of ‘a dirty blue diesel’ being more likely to be at the head of their train than a steam engine.' If now isn't high fire risk when would be? My post...

I worded my post carefully, the NYMR should be leading on the steam ban (and therefore communicating this). The last goodness knows how many pages are about a steam loco shortage - to me, in the current conditions that's irrelevant. I am...

How will 60163 even get to the railway with a 'Black' steam ban in place? She scooted it back to Darlington early from Nene Valley, before it came into effect.
