  1. silversteellady gefällt Sulzermans Beitrag in dem Thema North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    Today, I was on Pickering station for 20 minutes or so today and at least five people with family groups were trying to decipher the timetables. (I would like to see a clear large departure board displayed together with the full timetable, as the...

  2. silversteellady gefällt WorkingPressure225s Beitrag in dem Thema Bluebell Railway | Giants of Steam | 16th-18th October 2026.

    A few different reasons - as Tom has said above, the gala is themed around BR Standards and related designs. 6 engines is already quite a few, and will mean there’s a number of double headers and/or top n tailed services. Adding a seventh engine...

    I guess because the theme is really about BR standards (and closely-related designs like the Ivatt). Apart from cost, there is an impact of increasing the number of locos, which is each one gets used less - and people complain about that! Four...

    Also to add re: no Beachy Head 32424, despite missing the Spring Steam Gala this year. has been central to quite a few galas since it was launched the new build themed Giants last year, the Branch Line Gala, 65th Anniversary, and its own Launch...

  6. silversteellady gefällt torgormaigs Beitrag in dem Thema Rother Valley Railway.

    This one here on the Taieri Gorge tourist line near Dunedin doesn't look like it will be replaced any time soon (taken last year).[ATTACH] Gisborne Airport may be the only runway/railway level crossing left but I remember leaving Peshawar to go...

    Reminds me of a concert at the Camden Roundhouse. A security guard came up to me and said oi, no flash photography. I replied, there's nothing flash about my photography.

  8. silversteellady gefällt Chris86s Beitrag in dem Thema 35025 Brocklebank Line.

    I feel like this is great news, and I hope that the feeling from inside the organisations involved is similar! I do hope that 35025 does return to the mainline, I have memories of seeing her at Loughborough when I was younger and thinking that...

    I hope your post and communications with MNLPS members will reassure people such as such as @Steamage (See his post #309). He has raised some perfectly valid points - to which I could add the issue of support crews if both 35025 and 35028 were...
