lynbarn нравится сообщение meeee в теме WANTED 60lb Bullhead Track.
Double head and Bull Head are two different things. Double head is symmetrical in cross section and theoretically can be turned over. In reality it doesn't work like that. Replaced on the main line but there's still a lot in use in sidings. The...

Thanks Mark. With the way the country seems be going we're gonna need to keep up ongoing thorough reviews of security everywhere. Like anybody with properties, venues etc, along with little police time available to deal with theft and general...

Thanks. The gates across the end of Austens bridge are there for the construction period only. Simply to deter trespass on to the construction site. Mike

Why not just go and support the railway anyway? If folk stay away because it's not what they want then there may not be a Gala next year to specualte and moan about. I expect to be shot down in flames, but the whole heritage world is on a knife...

Back in the very early days of GCRN (so early 2000s) there was a project to recover some track from sidings at Nottingham Midland. The further into the sidings you went, the older the track became. Some of it was extremely historic; some of it...

Interesting to see the gates at the end of the bridge. I guess that for a security point of view and the potential for unauthorised movements of agricultural traffic along the permanent way, these would be useful to retain and lock shut during...

I wonder if there is still an old rail yard or somewhere which has not been disturbed in years, that might have some buried in concrete.

Was bullhead ever rolled at 60 lb/yd? It is listed in BS9 but that doesn't mean that it was.

Mike H, you are making this look too easy, but I know that it hasn't always been the case in the past. Thank you for the entertainment, and will you also thank the team for all the hard work that they have put in to make this all happen? It is a...

That one, "Section 5b, Section overview - 1", has been added to with another, Section 5a Section overview. I seem to recall reading somewhere that there was hope that the ballast needed to underlay the track could be brought in by rail...

My experiences were limited to several rides in one owned by a friend but they were never something that I enjoyed. it was a question of accept the lift or not go to whatever it was we were going to. I still have memories of going down the A1...

Don't diss Reliant Robins - speaking from actual experience (I owned one for a couple of years), they are a much better vehicle than popular culture would have you believe. Handling is actually fine once you get used to the feeling of it, I...
