August 2026 Construction Update Smokebox: Visibly, not a lot has changed and it still looks the same as at this year’s Open Day. But in the background, we have now received five rolled plates from Barnshaws (who made the wrapper) consisting of...

Sheff a plăcut postul lui acorb în subiectul North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
Kidderminster TMD was an incredible investment by the SVR and associated diesel groups and has paid dividends in recent years by providing the SVR with a top notch diesel fleet in enviable condition. But it is also an admission that without those...

There is an message here for advocates of diesel traction, and those bemoaning the slow progress being made with D5032's overhaul and the repair of D7628 - these jobs are just as time-consuming, involved and expensive as maintaining the steam...

Sheff a plăcut postul lui charterboy în subiectul Inter City.
"Horribly wrong" I would suggest is a significant over reaction. It failed as older locos and indeed modern ones do from time to time. The train got rescued and went to a different destination but arrived back at Crewe 2 mins late

Sheff a plăcut postul lui The Gricing Owl în subiectul Photographing steam in the Karoo.
This is most certainly a Don't Do This At Home posting! A very much draft double page spread, screen grabbed at very low resolution from one of two 1989 chapters of my South African Steam Loco memoirs book. July. Just about on the border...

Sheff a plăcut postul lui The Gricing Owl în subiectul Fire Risk.
As with Petra's post too, I would be amazed if any railway in the very considerable fire risk area even thinks about running steam. It has to stay stopped and not re-start until it is certain the fire risk has gone. And I would suggest that...

Sheff a plăcut postul lui Petra Wilde în subiectul Fire Risk.
Coming back closer to the debate about steam and fire risk - Surely after the many catastrophic house fires being a headline story on the TV news, it is a huge PR own-goal for any steam railway (unless copiously being rained on) to continue to...

Sheff a plăcut postul lui John Petley în subiectul Saphos Trains 2026.
I must take my hat off to the signalmen who are responsible for the Brighton Man Line and East Sussex Coast lines. Today, a Statesman charter train was due to run from Derby to Eastbourne for the air show. By the time I checked Real Time Trains...

Well if you listen to Lineisclear, that person with the bequest is not that important because they are 'just' a member/supporter and he would rather time is spent chasing Arts Council grants than looking after the members and supporters who have...
