  4. Bluenosejohn gefällt City_Steams Beitrag in dem Thema South Tynedale Railway..

    I braved public transport and the damp weather on Saturday to make a brief first visit for the gala. Not the intensity of activity you'd normally expect at such an event, but this friendly place has a genuine light railway feel (balcony end...

    Another Collection X gem has appeared out in the open! It's the Borsig, "Sotillos", late of the Sabero Railway. In related news - and full disclosure - I have recently joined the Vale of Rheidol Railway company (part time, it's a 6 hour commute)...

    Apologies for the lack of recent updates - it's all been a bit complicated! A couple of weeks ago I suffered a heart attack. I'm fine, and living only a ten minute blue light run from Papworth, one of the world's finest cardiac units, was...

  9. Bluenosejohn gefällt Robins Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.

    In fairness, the 4150 Fund has issued monthly restoration updates and annual newsletters on their website in the same way as the 82045 Fund does. http://www.4150.org.uk/4150_news.html It's probably gone under the radar on here because nobody...

  10. Bluenosejohn gefällt John Petleys Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.

    The owning group must be very pleased by the positive reaction to 4150's return to steam. It would be so easy to say, "Oh, it's just another Large Prairie - ridden behind plenty of them, photographed plenty of them", etc. True, 4150 is the...

    As regards 82045. It's never good form to give a completion date, as there are so many variables and unknowns. She will be ready when she is ready. It is possible however to say that when the great day eventually arrives, there are already plans...
