All true - most railway GMs (or equivalent role) don't post regularly elsewhere in a personal capacity. The notable exceptions being Gus Dunster (SVR) and Jonnie Pay (Spa Valley). Robin Coombes used to give occasional insights to the running of...

Following on from @buzby2 post above the tamper (with the resident one) at Norden and Car 14 on a low loader yesterday. Although the angle makes it look like it may have over ridden a set of buffer stops.

Encouragingly, that post has been updated to read that there are a couple of people/ organisations interested in taking them on. As a financial supporter of the GCR-RST, I am surprised (and more than a little angry) that I am having to learn...

The staff newsletter, or a version of it without personal details, should be public. How did the Santa's do this year? Talk in Pickering was they were much lighter on loadings than in previous years due to the high price. I saw one train with...

Has there ever been any discussions in the past about returning the T26 to steam? It seems like a locomotive that would suit the NNR, not only from a prototypical standpoint but also from a small and relatively cheap to run point of view. I know...

Not sure about the E4, but heard rumours there had been enquiries about restoring the J17, that were met with a firm no. Would the E4 be strong enough for the NNR’s regular 5 coaches and a van trains? Think the E4 is only a class 1 or 2 power...

They'll fit in perfectly, what with already having a station ending in Road due to it being nearly 3 miles away from the village it's meant to serve.

Here is an account of that day including the ARPS meeting in the GWR railcar at Tenterden. After the meeting the delegates were treated to a rare Tenterden-Robertsbridge return trip behind a Terrier, where they saw the H-class tank in storage...

Bliss was it in that afternoon to be alive but to be young and wearing a school raincoat at the north end of Crewe Station was very heaven. (1958 or 1959 I think) [ATTACH]

It will be interesting to see what the first livery is. For what it's worth, this is how it was when it first arrived on the K&ESR very nearly 60 years ago (3 April 1966)...
