I see BBC Look North had Grosmont Station Tavern and Grosmont co-op on tonight saying how Easter trade is being decimated by the railway closure

I wonder if it’s a cosmetic restoration, wasn’t the same planned for 5322?

I visited Didcot yesterday - a non-running day with very few people around. Looking around the running shed, two of the usual residents appeared to be missing - 1466 and 7808 Cookham Manor. According to a blackboard in the shed, 1466 is...

silversteellady liked free2grice's post in the thread 46447 Overhaul.
I was fortunate to be able to visit Cranmore engine shed yesterday. 46447 was outside in the sunshine with more parts being assembled. What struck me was the average age of the young fitters as it was probably only in the mid twenties. Well done...

silversteellady liked Jamessquared's post in the thread Dean Forest Railway.
The cost of bringing in three or four Victorian carriages by lorry would be considerable, quite apart from the question of who has such carriages available for loan. I suspect the numbers just don't stack up for a short-term event. The whole...

On a dull Good Friday morning, Tornado is seen passing over the 1837 built Grand Junction Railway Grade 11 list structure at Penkridge with its engine and coach move from Tyseley to the East Lancs Railway. The seven arch viaduct crosses the River...

silversteellady liked NathanP's post in the thread Saphos Trains 2026.
The previous issue of Trackside (or one of the other mags) mentioned that Mayflower was going to be the first LSL steam loco to have ETCS fitted. So I doubt it is near the end of its ticket if it's first for that.

silversteellady liked Alex Productions's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
I personally like it when railways have a few locos facing the other way to most of the fleet it gives chances for different shots that you'd usually not get. Sticking with Bluebell. It's a shame that a shot like this one is only possible with...

silversteellady liked John Petley's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
I must admit, I was a bit disappointed to read of the plans to turn 80151 to face north. Facing south does offer opportunities away from the more popular spots for north facing engines. However, a trawl through my photos made me realise that...
