  1. Dan Hill liked acorb's post in the thread 6024 King Edward 1.

    Very pleased to see this loco on the way back, the mainline has been missing a King - the ultimate GWR design. There was the disappointment of 6023 becoming heritage line only, & never getting to prove its new chimney draughting arrangement -...

    I think those images appear to come from an account on YouTube, who posted a YouTube short of the loco moving. Glad to see 6024 in steam again. Personally I hope it does end up in matching GWR livery to 5029, because (in my opinion at least) the...

  7. Dan Hill liked RichardSalmon's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

    It was only at the weekend that I heard about the plan to turn 80151 to face North. My assumption is that it's for a loco line-up (like last year's with the four new-builds, at the North end of Horsted Keynes) at Giants. Doing it when there's a...
