    Quite a lot has been done over the past four weeks. B581241 was lettered, numbered, striped and sent away to Swithland sidings. We then started work on B589204 which had been overhauled in 2010. As it would be at Rothley for a while, it is being...

    Ah yes. Looking forward to the TOC claiming delay repay from the Severn Valley, due to the rostered signaller being busy on the phone to Coach Company X about a large booking of afternoon teas for the following weekend, diatery requirements and...

    The very best of luck to you and your fellow Trustees and volunteers. It must have been a devastating blow to get caught up in financial shenanigans. It sounds like you're facing the future with a good plan, hopefully one that is flexible enough...
