أعجب Sheff بمشاركة Steve' في موضوع North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
It's not a Stills boiler; its TTO 43654. Can't you read? ;) I note that, when Moors Line was first re-vamped a couple of years ago, the names of the paid editorial team that replaced volunteer editor John Hunt was proudly mentioned on the back...

أعجب Sheff بمشاركة 26D_M' في موضوع Great Britain XVIII: 18/4 -25/4/26.
My understanding from a recent conversation at the lineside is that something of that sort has already happened. Whatever the diagnosis and proposed rectification work, unless it is very straightforward, the loco can't really be spared from...

That’s X-rated stuff. If she was a horse she’d have been put out of her misery long since. Remind me just how much people paying to be part of this? I suppose at least for those in the Mk2s their ears are spared the agony.

Possibly an RTT glitch, but appears to an hour late leaving Hellifield?

أعجب Sheff بمشاركة Bikermike' في موضوع GWSR General Discussion and Operations.
Wiki says built in 1906, so I'm afraid you have missed contractual limitation by a mere 120 years. Unless the contract was executed as a deed, it's only 114 years late. That's before you get to the problem of privity of contract. I hate to...

أعجب Sheff بمشاركة brennan' في موضوع GWSR General Discussion and Operations.
In LTC Rolt's autobiography he recounts that in about 1955 the line, beside which he lived at Stanley Pontlarge, was closed for six months for major civil engineering works. He had discussion with the chief civil engineer who said that the...

Under a waxing Moon, 34028 forges past Felhampton, on the way to the summit at Little Stretton. Almost dark as the Sun had set ages ago, there was but a smidgen of data on the histogram............. [ATTACH] Cheerz, Alan

I think the MHR owns something like a 75% stake in the loco, with the original owning group owning the remaining 25%. I think the Swiss individual has just provided funds for the overhaul.

Think he has underwritten the overhaul to a significant extent. Also a Director of R&S (E) Ltd, Bury, where the loco is being overhauled. He's German, but lives in Switzerland, heir to a fortune made from chocolate .... "34007 is owned by...
