MellishR gefällt Steves Beitrag in dem Thema Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
It may be operationally convenient and the NYMR and the Bluebell are two different railways but, if the NYMR experience is anything to go by, Joe Public does not like changing trains. For most they are comfortably settled in their seats and are...

I would rather they put a bit more effort into their descriptions of their trips.

A cunning plan to divert things away from the current hot topic?:):):):)

MellishR gefällt LMS2968s Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.
How exactly did a thread about the Severn Valley Railway suddenly develop into a discussion about carriage door handles on the Bluebell?

MellishR gefällt Jamessquareds Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.
I think it is quite reasonable that a railway places limits on staff (paid or volunteer) sharing photos where those photos are taken from an area of privilege, i.e. from a viewpoint not open to the public. As an example not related to this...

MellishR gefällt acorbs Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.
Given the very public place the incident took place, avoiding speculation seems an extremely unlikely and futile expectation. Early realisation of this and an attempt to control narrative by releasing the facts (however brief), would seem to be...

MellishR antwortete auf das Thema North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
Certainly NR could impose a steam ban everywhere else but with an exception between Grosmont and Whitby if they saw fit to do so, but is there any suggestion why they might do so, or any reason to suppose that they have done so?

MellishR gefällt 35Bs Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.
That's fine, but it relies on there being something "official" to fill the void.

MellishR gefällt Dead Sheeps Beitrag in dem Thema SVR General Discussion.
In the age of social media and smartphones, communication is crucial. This strikes me as a situation where the SVR would have been better served by owning the narrative from the outset, rather than referring to a collision simply as an...

MellishR gefällt bluetrains Beitrag in dem Thema GWR four-cylinder arrangement?.
That's a comprehensive summary of the usage of 2-cylinder compounds in England. But for the full UK picture, don't forget Bowman Malcolm's engines for the Belfast & Northern Counties. The last of the 3-ft gauge compound 2-4-2Ts was in use until...

MellishR gefällt Jamessquareds Beitrag in dem Thema GWR four-cylinder arrangement?.
On the second point, it is not quite true to say no one bothered with two cylinder compounds. T.W. Wordsell built 11 such locos for the GER (most of which came out after he left that railway) and then a relatively significant number of various...
