    Still a handful of tickets left according to the A1st - a look at the issued timings really shouldn't leave any fence sitters in doubt this will be a cracking trip. Steam mileage wise this is back to the glory days of 10 or 15 years ago.

    And as others have said already that on the same day there's a trip with what I consider to the general public a more well known and popular loco, plus with much more steam milage and unassisted for a lot of the journey, travelling on alot of the...

    That's generous but on the other hand, what sort of experience will it be other than a nice view?

    A Hairy Potter event is a bit niche isn't it, or is it a spin off from Channel Fours The Great Pottery Throwdown?;););)

    I'm not sure if the Llangollen Railway have just possibly announced the "Ultimate" railway enthusiast event...... Red Dwarf themed train, with Chris Barrie. I suspect there is a massive crossover between rail enthusiasts and Red Dwarf fans....

    It's lovely to see Llangollen come back from the brink, it'll be even better once the resident Prairie is in service- very much the "classic" Welsh line with locos appropriate. Chris

    I guess the point being made is that the vac-braked locos and the air-braked stock are both independently compliant with mainline regulations, but are incompatible with each other. While at the same time, the carriages that are compatible with...

    I was a fan of mainline running until a couple of years ago but the product has become so downgraded and unappealling, esxpecially the way WCR approach it, I've stopped booking RTC tours completely. Hermetically sealed, diesel assisted, over...

    At a guess, based on 46115 returning to use late in 2019, the annual certification will have expired late last year and not been renewed because the seven-yearly exam/replace small tubes probably falls due during 2026. Given there isn't,...

    Didn't go up the yard yesterday, due to the need to stare at the back of my eyelids for as long as possible! Normal service should be resumed next week...... In the meantime, a few more from the Nikon shoots & running day....
