    That's all very well for the driver but makes life very difficult for the fireman. The driver stays in one place but the firemans job entails him moving about the cab, needing room to swing his shovel and also keep a good lookout from his side of...

    Seat? They are for the old codger known as the driver. Those of us at the coal face think the "fireman's seat" is where the footplate passenger goes to be out of the way - but when there are two people to occupy it it doesn't work very well:(....

    In regards to the respect and curtesy, I wonder if the signage has been displayed elsewhere as I've always found the staff at Harmans Cross very friendly, helpful and polite. It appears tbat there is always a small minority that enjoy being nasty...

    Although this was copied of the Railway's Facebook page I did see this sign affixed the gate at Harmans Cross Station yesterday afternoon. I find it quite sad that certain elements of our hobby need this sort of reminder.[ATTACH]

    Was disappointed to see the Grog had changed hands when I visited a couple of weeks ago - was last in FW in 2015. Ben Nevis probably the best nowadays. They had quite a tasty 80/- on. Black Isle is a little over-hyped, and I'm not keen on it...

    My planned three days at this gala became one-ish due to a lot of sickness at home, but I'm so glad I managed the visit I did. Said it before, but the ambition of these WSR events under the current team is so impressive. There's so much going on...
