    I really enjoyed the day despite the delays. I've learned over the years not to get too worried about these things and go with the flow. It was just unfortunate that a whole number of things combined to completely wreck the timetable. I had a...

    I was on the first train that day, aged nine. It was the only railway event that my dad ever took me to - and here is my ticket (actually my dad's in all probability) to prove it[ATTACH] A day I remember well Peter

    I would argue that the event will be even better than the Bluebell 65 event last year - not least because there’s 9 engines running over the weekend! Can’t wait for people to see what’s in store for this one… ;) Arguably the best bit of the...

    Thanks to the organisers and volunteers for their time and efforts into putting the event on. The guests were great and made for an enjoyable enough day. One thing that does need to get better, however is the communication to passengers regarding...

    I could be wrong, but someone told me that it was a problem with the air pump that is now fixed.

    The Gold Leaf numbering certainly popped as it was waiting under the road bridge at Toddington earlier, a very lovely livery, as has 229. Fingers crossed it's not a major issue

    I'm not sure what happened with the Caley in the end or what the failure was, apparently there was another points issue up the line after I got to Cheltenham with 78022, but can't have been too major as the Railcar arrived, 78022 headed back and...

    Caley's failed from the sound of it, it was still with 78022 heading for Broadway, but it was just 78022 on arrival at Winchcombe, which I then took to Cheltenham Racecourse.

    Caley Tank faces North, Coffee Pot and 78022 face South from the pictures I've seen

    From the photos of it being unloaded, it's smoke box is facing Broadway.

    The lack of AWS magnet under the front certainly suggests that and ties in with other reports. I hope it does get the kit fitted in time for 2028, as it would make a very special recreation of 1T57 if it was able to run with 70013 and 44871 on a...

    Same, very excited to see it again. Last saw it in 2006, and its nice to have an engine back that hasn't been seen running for nearly 20 years

    I'm probably in the minority of looking forward to a Black Five at this event. Despite having seen a good chunk of them, I think the ones I've travelled behind are 45379 at the MHR and I think I did 45428 at the NYMR back in 1998 (though I can't...
