I have to be honest, I have no love for the USA tanks. Would love to see one of those MWs back though!

All three were out of service by then, although it could be argued that Dom and Hastings were never really in service. Gervase at least did some work in the early years. Gervase's current overhaul is proceeding at Rolvenden, and with Hastings and...

Yes they were. Back in the day as a kid I 'drove' the Ugly (aka No. 56, KESR 26 then 29) when it was in steam and remember messing around on the footplates of Arthur and Peckett Westminster when they were rusting elsewhere on the KESR. ISTR...

Thank you for this analysis. Again, from a church perspective, I'm sadly familiar with these. As a parent, I've had to be advised of measures taken to protect the choir during rehearsals because of intruders and the risk they've posed to those...

I should say straight away that I am not a lawyer, so this is an interpetation, not a legal judgement. I also admit I have not read the legislation at all, but I have read the guidance. I wonder if some of the statements being put around about...

Yes, that was the tightest year - 73082, 80151, 541, 65 all year; 263 for the beginning of the year and 6989 from June. I guess technically there was a period between March and June when only four steam locos were available. The position has...

Another workday with five people attending saw the weld repairs to the underframe of #676 completed and then the undersealing finished. Then the "old "W" iron had to be temporarily bolted back so the wagon could be moved in a shunt next week....

"Arthur" is one that I regret moving on, as I worked for 14 years not far from its old stamping ground at Kent Cement Works, at Stone. It would be interesting to try to compile a list of motive power no longer on the K&ESR - fairly...

Hi Steve. The old Manning Wardle valves were sadly cream crackered. The wonderful John Dunn performed his usual machining magic on some GWR valve casting SVR had in stock and made available to us. We were told GWR steam valves are the bees...

Theoretically, Charwelton (one "L") will be able to pull 4 mk1's on our line. Livery, as I understand it, will be red.
