First visit to ELR since August 1993? Although 499 was at Bury for quite while in the 90s IIRC.

It would be a rarity then, at least amongst standard gauge locos. One of the issues with funding overhauls from steaming fees is setting the right fee, because it is difficult to predict the future overhaul requirement, and the price of one...

silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Jamessquared în subiectul Fire Risk.
Ships have funnels, locomotives have chimneys! I don't think there is a magic bullet. Minimising risk will come from a combination of control measures, including - but not limited to: Spark arrestors in smokeboxes Proper maintenance of ashpans...

silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Wagoniester în subiectul Swanage Autumn Steam Gala 11-13 September.
Tornado has been confirmed as being the only guest for this event in a comment by the railway on its Facebook page. Something else had been lined up but seems to have fallen through. I believe 80104 has fallen slightly behind schedule and won't...

silversteellady a plăcut postul lui 5944 în subiectul Oil Firing..

silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Romsey în subiectul Oil Firing..
I can understand that view, but this may eventually be a case of oil fired steam or no steam in high fire risk months or locations in years to come. I can't recall much smell of oil when travelling behind oil fired locos in Switzerland, but they...

silversteellady a plăcut postul lui cksteam în subiectul North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
They've never declared FIRECON. They just haven't got any engines available. On the July Youtube update Nick steered around it by saying they were 'just being careful what they ran'. But in the same video Repton was seen light engine on a test...

Regular readers will know that I am very critical of the NYMR's senior management, but I would like to stress that it is not a blanket criticism. I think the MPD staff under Piglet (and also the C & W, who he's also responsible for) and the PWay...

>>>> I challenge you to find a steam loco that covers its overhaul costs from steaming fees..... I think that 5542 does a fairly good job at that :-)

They are the old cylinder lubricators, yes. No.2 Dolgoch still has them, although they are no longer functional, being superseded by a mechanical lubricator.
