    Nipped over to the ELR at Heywood this afternoon, I had a couple of items of memorabilia to donate to the railway. Got some shots of 60163 while there before she leaves on Tuesday. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

    The Urie Loco Society aim to set up a stall beside 499's tender. Books etc. for whatever you want to give for them or free to good homes! 499's frames are in the shed and may not be accessible, hence setting up at the other end of the yard. I...

    A very close call at Parson Street but it all adds to the excitement doesn't it https://www.flickr.com/photos/163779836@N03/55217927999/in/dateposted-public/

    Think you'll find that most heritage railways are like this and help out where possible, there's very much a all of one "company" ethos in my experience.

    Can I just say an absolutely huge thankyou to you all for your support this weekend. I will post a bit more of a full wrap up later, but for now, from team gala, Thankyou!!

    Thanks to all the volunteers who make these galas possible. Especially those willing to work the late turns to produce, as mentioned above, something very special. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

    Yes, he used to be a professional driver on Swiss railways I think. Every time a loco new to ELR came in the 90s he'd hire it for a day of fxp. He seems to have a thing for original Bulleids particularly but MN9 is progressing again too [emoji6]

    Thanks. He does like to splash the cash. Seen him on the Jacobite amongst other places.

  10. silversteellady liked Dan Hill's post in the thread Mid Hants Railway Operational Matters.

    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.

  11. silversteellady liked 26D_M's post in the thread Mid Hants Railway Operational Matters.

    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...

    What more can you ask for two Bulleids working on the MHR again.

  14. silversteellady liked Alex Productions's post in the thread Mid Hants Railway Operational Matters.

    I think the plan is eventually for 34007 to go mainline. I doubt it'll happen straight away, it's too needed on the Mid Hants. With 41312 going out of ticket this year that only leaves 35005 & 30506, with no loco in reserve in case one fails. I...

    I have to respond to the above. I am sure the Diesel Traction Group will be delighted with your feedback - but I must take issue with your use of the word 'neglect'. This loco was completely rebuilt around a decade ago and the volunteers went to...
