Leaving aside the technical details, my hunch is you might end up in the situation where on days when there is demand for such a service, there is no capacity; and on days where there is capacity, there is no demand! Tom

I just honeslty see the whole idea as a total non starter. The general consensus even if it was to happen seems to be high days and holidays when the SVR runs its busiest traffic and when the charter path is often taken up. That charter path...

Which is why I think any economic argument would come around serving high season leisure traffic, rather than commuting. You are then talking a couple of services a day on high days and holidays rather than regular services throughout the year....

Understood, and largely agreed. Method 1 is, realistically, the only way this might happen. The questions are real and serious, but are capable of being dealt with intelligently by reasonable people. I'd be interested to know what the material...

I also think a few things need to be set out here. I don't believe anybody here has said it outright cannot happen. Like any proposal, the overall idea likely can be achieved. In fact, there is a scenario of mainline TOC operating a service...

So far, (and likely to remain that way with her move!) my only two shots of 76079, both at Steamport. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]

We did have it down as 4472 for a while on the working timetable as a joke placeholder number, it was tempting to release it like that! :)

'Warrior' was certainly in a dismatled state, as the press release says. 'Wilbert' is obviously in one piece as per the pic. My guess as to the ID of the other Austerity you mention would be NCB 65, HE3889/64....

Trying to work out which of the DFR Austerities Warrior is - there have been substantial parts of one in the siding next to the crossing just before St Mary's Halt on my last few visits, is that Warrior? There was another Austerity that I hadn't...

Thats certainly how I remember it Ray, arrived Bickershaw in 1977 ex Walkden works shunter, in exchange for Hurricane which went the other way. The last time I saw it at Bickershaw was in the summer of 1983. It was off its wheels in the back of...

I have been away for a couple of weeks but the team has been working hard, so B589204 is now in undercoat but was outside in the rain, so is still awaiting top coat. B570676 is in the shed and has had repairs done to a couple of lower inner...

Plus the hoped for return of the B12 and Ring Haw next year, enabling work to start on the Y14. I’d love to see the return of 76084 too, but this may be a few more years away. Black Prince even further away…
