    It's generally not the market that's the problem, it's the product. Marathon trips are the exception rather than the rule in Europe. Assuming you mean the Rodelblitz, then it's about 3 hours each way, you can alight at stations en route, you can...

    The 'value' of the enthusiast market isn't just financial though. I wonder how many amongst that 11% go on to become volunteers at a heritage railway? Although quite conceivable that they 'get the bug' while on holiday and then join a railway...

    Pleased to see Conqueror now free from the Surrey farm buildings. I had to climb over two locos to get to it when we were doing some filming there. Last time I saw it before Peter Rampton's place, it was slumbering in the open sidings at...
