Loco crew are all fine if shook up. They know they’ve got support as/when needed. ORR/RAIB informed, it’s a case of letting the processes flow accordingly. Foxfield have not only opened their offer of travel to our customers, but assisted in...

7714 has had its old grate completely removed, a new grate fully rebuilt, and is back in steam. It will re-enter traffic this afternoon. A superb effort by ESMP and the Bridgnorth staff.

A great report as usual Oswald - despite the 'happenings'. I particularly like 'a young man of adequate girth and a self-confessed cake fan.' Dinosaurs rather like cakes, but intake has to be limited these days. Bryan
