lynbarn antwortete auf das Thema New build M&GN C class.
While I would agree with you, a new build is a new build regardless of gauge, the problem, as I see it, is a lack of marketing skills and an understanding of the right methods of fundraising for each project. Having a dream to replicate a...

I noticed a dash to grab the 2 first class compartments in F37 at both Port Erin and Douglas yesterday. Ray.

Neither project would be mentioned here as this is a thread for a specific standard gauge loco. Gowrie is mentioned in several of the FR threads. The ZA6 has its own thread which was updated in March 2026. If you have updates, feel free to...

Besides the above, I have not seen any mention of two 2ft gauge projects which are being privately funded: NWNGR Gowie https://www.gowrielocomotivetrust.com/about-the-project and the Indian Dholpur ZA/6' new build:...

Yes, but then you get into the point that for anyone sufficiently knowledgable to care, they will know it is wrong; and for those not sufficiently knowledgeable, would they actually care that you had a loco carrying the identity of a long-lost...

Looking at the photos of bridge 24, where about is the location for the end of the loop point work going to be?

Service roads? Or is it the site of the passing loop at that point? If you're right and there are currently 'service roads' along the formation, I sincerely hope they will be returned to habitats for nature (including tree planting) once the...

That's a shame, you're missing out but if someone has already made the effort to provide an update they can't be expected to double their workload by posting another version too :)

Yes, there are several locos in the collection I would love to also see running again; however, I think it will be down to two things: one is money, and two, where would you restore them? Reading various pages on here and other social media...

I think the Renishaw Heisler would be top of my list to see on display, if only so I could pose this on its prototype! Possibly not the most practical loco for VoR services however….

Could be! Never say never at the Rheidol. It does have similar power to our 2-6-2Ts - but frankly there isn't a need for it to be restored. There's already a lot of backup - including a hefty Garratt. There are two Collection X locos in the...
