أعجب Miff بمشاركة Jamessquared' في موضوع V2 4771 Green Arrow to return?.
Isn’t there a question of reversibility? That is, hypothetically you could remove the existing cylinder block and preserve it; and replace with a new set of cylinders (of any construction method, it wouldn’t matter visually); but doing so...

The mind boggles ;) (What happens in Wittersham stays in Wittersham …) Tom

Confirmed that Kalahari has completed her first full line passenger run today. Looking forward to sampling this fine looking machine in action.

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Fireline' في موضوع Kent & East Sussex Railway.
It's a bit early for Santa, but.... 4270 was spotted on the move today. Was being moved by the unit that took the 4-SUB car back to Margate.

A new post (in two halves) on the RVR Blog Site featuring the arrival of GWR Loco No. 4270 at K&ESR yesterday. All part of our 'Ready for Robertsbridge' planning.. Mike...

المشاركة في موضوع V2 4771 Green Arrow to return?.
I agree however, at least until the 2019 policy is revised, it may be assumed NRM’d be open to considering the idea if there was a source of funding. Otherwise, logically, the policy would either not have mentioned GA as a candidate or could...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة 35B' في موضوع V2 4771 Green Arrow to return?.
Indeed. My point, given the persistence of the view (myth?) that the monobloc is irreparable, is that the means of repair or replacement can't assume that a fabricated replacement would be acceptable.

المشاركة في موضوع V2 4771 Green Arrow to return?.
I think it's quite clear from the 2019 policy and from Anthony's earlier comments that in 2019 NRM did not have a definitive answer to that question but that GA was one of only 3 locos which "could realistically be considered for main line...

المشاركة في موضوع V2 4771 Green Arrow to return?.
@35B On this forum, in 2014, Anthony Coulls (NRM) said (about the Monobloc/cylinders): "When the V2 was preserved, locos were selected because they were the first/oldest/most original survivor of their class. Green Arrow was available so was...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Bikermike' في موضوع Martyn's Law.
That's a shame. Perhaps we should have a British Heritage Transport Police (with Ford Anglias and 1950s uniforms...) to deal with ne'erdowells and ruffians on the preserved railways...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة Old Kent Biker' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
The railway can only obtain trackbed when and where the current owners are willing to sell it! This can take many years, or even decades, of dialogue. The recently-purchased Scout Group land, for example, resulted from discussions that began in...

أعجب Miff بمشاركة lynbarn' في موضوع Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
I agree, Bruce did say that no information was going to be released about what they are after, since they don't want a repeat of Parracombe. Personally, I thought it felt like a watershed weekend for the whole railway. Let's all be patient and...
