    A little late, shots from last weekends diesel event, posting here as I can't see another thread under galas. I would have to agree with the livery comments on the class 14, looked like it was undercoat from what they could find in the garage....

    Unsurprisingly, the bridge was damaged. It has been examined and is now safe for trains to pass over. [BJ]

    I went over to the first day of the KWVR's Diesel Gala on Thursday, Very well organised, many thanks to the organisers for getting such a large collection of locos, its a pity the Railways 20&37 are out of service. Very good for the railway as...

    Gresley's 150th anniversary has been celebrated in Doncaster this morning with an Azuma suitably emblazoned. It's fitting that the Teaks may yet return to service to celebrate the anniversary year. Pic: Richard Clinnick [ATTACH]

    And in other NRM news the 1845 built LNWR 2-2-2 "Columbine" returned to York yesterday and is temporally displayed on the turntable. A former resident of the old York Museum it has spent much of the last century in the city. In the 1990s it was...

    Oswald hasn't had too much luck with recent steam opportunities. Last Thursday domestic arrangements were such that a trip out would have been very difficult and the foul weather convinced me to stay at home. On Saturday I was all geared up for...

    Over on the Facebooks, 76079's tender has arrived and 80105s boiler is out. No.9 aside, trying to think the last time such a monochromatic lineup was at Aviemore? 1962?

    Very interesting point. Also there have been arguments about running large locomotives comfortably within their limits versus thrashing small industrials to their limits.

    When visiting last summer in the dry spell, the 2-10-0 austerity and the gw 2-8-0 tank were running. According to the staff member we spoke to, this was because they were less of a fire risk as they were worked less hard, so threw less sparks....

    I had classed the 5 year stay of 80080 as ‘long term’. The NNR statement says that the overhaul of ‘84 could take around 2 years, so there could be a chance of seeing the two types of Standard 4 running together. Who knows, maybe 80080 could...

    80080 will be at the NNR until at least 2030: https://nnrailway.co.uk/portfolio-items/br-standard-4mt-tank-engine-80080/

    Over the next few years there could be the possibility of having a steam fleet of the B12, Y14, N2, 80080, 76084 and the saddle tank locomotives. I’d imagine that’s a pretty ideal fleet for the NNR’s needs. With the WD going out of service, the...
