    Not at the moment but that doesn’t mean to say they won’t. And frankly good on LSL for stepping up and doing it. The ORR are heavily focussed on working at height and falls from height, and I don’t suspect it would be viewed kindly if a person or...

    Well, that was some week! Herding cats on Monday damn near killed Muggin's 'Ere, it was a long hot day, but all involved enjoyed themselves, and so did the loco crews and guard, which is what it's all about, and makes all the hard work put into...

    I was on the "Wine Line" train last night. 4 Mk1s (including kitchen car 1973) and a BY. Showery weather so the rail was wet. 41312 managed very well up to Alton and back and the up to M4M and back thank you!
