It's in the top RH corner of the blog. As soon as I get some news I will post an update.

المشاركة في موضوع 6024 King Edward 1.
Is there a good spot where they can pose it for a black & white 'works photo'?

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Sidmouth' في موضوع 6024 King Edward 1.
I think you maybe miss the point of the post which is both a tease but also photographic grey which was very much a steam era thing

أعجب Miff بمشاركة James McLeish' في موضوع Doncaster Works open day June 2026.
Some footage covering the event and the various locomotives on display. Was a great day overall, and was certainly a nice surprise to have Caroline offering rides throughout the day. [MEDIA]

All good stuff @pmh_74 I agree 100% I would also say do this hand in hand with B&YV Trust’s new strategy of rebuilding the track (but not operating trains, other than perhaps occasional open days) on the sections they own. This will prove the...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Olde576' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
I say this with more about how the L&B didn’t exactly suit itself well with locals the first go around: be it by a lack of proximity as was the case with Woody Bay or Lynton’s stations to the towns and villages they were supposed to serve, or...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة The Green Howards' في موضوع Doncaster Works open day June 2026.
Agreed - if you're aware someone's taking a photo in the first place, of course. What you don't need is a load of sarcastic abuse on several occasions afterwards, as I got that day. Quite ruined the whole day for me.

There’s a balance - it’s only polite to try and keep out of the way of somebody’s shot if you possibly can. On the other hand, as you say, anyone who acts ‘over entitled’ is a berk.

I do hope you're not one of these people who get angry if someone passes across their shot whilst they're setting up: I nearly came to blows with an absolute berk at Derby 200 over that after he got abusive towards me. You ain't important just...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Old Kent Biker' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
To be fair, this thread has been running since 2009, and has 818 pages, so it is perhaps a bit much to expect anyone to remember or read through all of it, and not everyone is within easy distance of the L&B to visit 'in the flesh' so to speak....

أعجب Miff بمشاركة jnc' في موضوع West Somerset Railway General Discussion.
The basic idea pre-dates electronic navigation systems; I once saw for sale, in a truck stop, a map-book which included annotations on things in the map which would only be of use to truckers (I don't recall whether it was clearances, or maximum...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة free2grice' في موضوع West Somerset Railway General Discussion.
From day one of my apprenticeship, my tutor would mention again and again, "measure twice, cut once". It certainly cut out the basic errors. But always remember, the person that never made a mistake was the person that never did anything. [BJ]

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Big Al' في موضوع West Somerset Railway General Discussion.
When a planned closure of an 'A' road is necessary, the alternative route is always selected so that it will provide a similar clearance and weight limit to the road that is closed. This is specifically to help large/heavy vehicles. Car drivers...

Near me, there are still idiots who like to black out the metric measurements on height restriction signs.
