Bluenosejohn vond acorb's post leuk in het topic SVR Loco Newsy News / discussions.

At the NNR we’re currently undertaking a resignalling project at Sheringham which limits what we can run. Cream Tea reservations and advance sales meant that some trains were full on Sunday and a handful of visitors weren’t able to travel. Had...

Bluenosejohn vond Flying Phil's post leuk in het topic Windcutter Wagons.
[ATTACH] Here is a view of the bulged fixed end on B560676. We believe it must have been burst open, then pulled back in place (hence the two patched holes in the vertical stanchions). Then it was rewelded, where possible, to the headstock....

Bluenosejohn vond Breva's post leuk in het topic GWSR General Discussion and Operations.
It's a popular spot. The line goes uphill, and into the tunnel there. Look the other way, and you'll see the plate layer's hut we're building: [ATTACH] (sorry about the contrast, my basic camera is not good with contrast.)

Another month and some more updates. At LMS the midweek team have fitted the two sandboxes and await the 4 filler chutes which are being fabricated back at Toddington. The rear cylinder cladding is nearing completion and then hopefully the LHS...
