    That Facebook page is part of a private group (presumably you have to be a GWS member to access it) so I won't attempt to link it from here. However, if I may summarise. . . A superheater flue collapsed whilst 6697 was propelling an empty train...

    I’m a trustee of the Avon Valley Railway Heritage Trust, and we’ve just launched our “Fit for the Future” Appeal, focused on safeguarding the long‑term future of the railway. The aims are deliberately forward‑looking: investing in essentials...

    I dunno, I took my eldest on the ELR's As-Near-As-We-Can-Get-To-Harry-Potter-Before-The-Lawyers-Get-Involved day (I think it's actually called The Wizarding Express) and ten years later they're still running that. I'm sure they're not the only...

    A few years ago now, @Lineisclear poste on another forum something along the lines of; 'What is the NYMR there for?' I responded 'To enable the volunteer to enjoy their hobby.' @Lineisclear effectively poured scorn on that and quoted the...

    I had no idea the turnover was that great - that's "premier league" territory in turnover, for a line which - with all due respect - I suspect most enthusiasts don't immediately think of when asked the question "what do you think are the most...

    When we read of the list of vehicles under repair and overhaul, it brings it home what a time consuming and expensive job it is to keep a heritage railway operating. [BJ]

    I doubt the NYMR would have much work for the P3 this year either. They've got a much more limited service than historically and stretched finances. I suspect they wouldn't be unhappy at losing this one off the hire bill for another year. NELPG...
