I think the fact that WC have fitted more early MK2 stock with CDL and sent a full rake to Scotland shows great progress and a clear intention. I also think that it’s a good train to send as it’s air only so works well with the 5s. I’m glad to...

Miff gefällt Sheffs Beitrag in dem Thema 6024 King Edward 1.
I was an engineer in the chemical industry all my working life and firstly for our sins they were always referred to as vacuum pumps, be they recip, liquid ring or whatever. However, in design and specification, we always used absolute pressure...

Miff gefällt 73108s Beitrag in dem Thema Brighton Belle update.
All style and no substance. Just right for the punters it's aimed at. And it's another former BB car with most of its real history stripped out for today's champagne and canapes set. Yes, I see the irony in that comment, but it would be nice if...

Given all the malarkey that has gone before there's a bit of me that thinks the best message to give the company, not the crews, would be if the ECS were to run from Carnforth to FW without a photographer in sight.

If CDL’s been fitted to enough coaches a new exemption is not required. WCRC would never announce such a climbdown in advance, if that’s what they’ve done. As usual we won’t know until the Jacobite stock & locos emerge, unless ORR want to...

So pleased to hear that you are to retain the swing out seats, so much a feature of colonial narrow gauge railways. One of the most surreal "footplate rides" I ever had was on a railtour in Pakistan in 1990. Sitting on said seat, swung out,...

Miff is entirely correct. I'm Maddie, I am currently responsible for looking after 120. It is most likely to steam next, although as you would imagine it is a slow process. 120 is in good condition with a recent works visit in South Africa...

In the UK the Darnall Trust are working on NG15 120 so that's rather more likely, in the foreseeable future, to run than 133. Whether on the WHR or elsewhere has not been announced as far as I know. @Mrcow might be the best person to ask. South...
