    Have we reached the "I was talking to an acquaintance of mine in Dagestan recently - lovely person, profoundly wise for an inhabitant of that part of the world - about one of my patents and ... [continues]" stage of this argument yet? Tom

    Well while much of the UK sweltered on the hottest day of the current heatwave here is Thursday afternoons Jacobite standing in a very wet Arisaig - no steam ban here:). At 21-22 degrees it was about 15 degrees lower than some of the hottest...

    It'll be Diesel only this weekend. Definitely a sensible decision given recent developments.

  4. green five a plăcut postul lui Steve în subiectul North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    To my simple mind, an AGM is to receive reports from the directors on the previous years performance, including the accounts, appoint any new directors and make proposals for the future. There's only the latter that might require further...

    Let's hope there's some rain then!

    Post on SVR Diesels Facebook page shows services delayed due to leaves on the line at Hampton Loade. Said leaves are still attached to the tree!

  8. green five a plăcut postul lui blink bonny în subiectul Fire Risk.

    Maybe the various hosepipe bans and the steam ban due to dry vegetation shouldn't be over-conflated. At first glance they are in response to the current severe drought, and that is what is being reported in the media, but our modern media don't...

    Yes indeed. Best not to forget that unique style, one off in the class, 2-10-2 South African Class 20 steam loco. Built in SA 1935 and converted to a condensing loco with a type CL condensing tender in 1950. Sadly scrapped in 1961 . It is said...

  10. green five a plăcut postul lui acorb în subiectul RTC 2026.

    That is very poor from RTC - they should be aware the chances of that being steam hauled are practically non existent. How about accept reality and hire a pair 20s or 37s and try and make something of a situation nobody can do anything about?...

  11. green five a plăcut postul lui LittleRedTrain în subiectul RTC 2026.

    Received the following in an e-mail from RTC today: [ATTACH] I'd say this sails very close to the edge of 'mis-selling' given that the chances of steam haulage are, barring a major monsoon, slim to nil, and the vintage trams haven't been running...

  12. green five a plăcut postul lui MuzTrem în subiectul 6024 King Edward 1.

    With its cut-down boiler mountings and slimline cylinders, 6024's appearance is no longer 'authentic' for any part of its working life. So, arguably, it really doesn't matter what colour they paint it now...

  13. green five a plăcut postul lui Big Al în subiectul Fire Risk.

    If you look at Belmond's extensive programme of 2026 British Pullman trips you will see that, as normal, the steam ones with Clan Line are in a minority. However, they have planned for steam to operate primarily in the early and late season with...

  14. green five a plăcut postul lui lostlogin în subiectul Fire Risk.

    Even replacing by diesel may not be straight forward as volunteers often book long in advance and those volunteers may only be passed for steam and not diesel. With the steam ban operating departments are at short notice having to find crews...

    Bo'ness still steam as well. I was there on Thursday. Spent last week in Linlithgow and it rained every day. Thick green grass on the fields as well, I'd forgotten what green grass looked like!
