    The tender brake shaft has now been painted black! [ATTACH] Also to be seen are the fitted bolts with painted heads, so the final assembly of this item is just about to happen. On display over the "Deltic" weekend on Loughborough platform was...

    What a great offer for people at Sheffield Park. All within the station signalling limits and controllable, plus a nice open air experience.

    The loco shed at Ashchurch was the original one at Toddington, built by the DRPS and always known as the Dowty shed at Toddington back in the day. The nearest original railway built loco shed to Ashchurch was at Tewkesbury, ironically located...

    So when is 7325 joining it? :D I had some epic runs behind that pair. Plymouth (62 late Exeter, 17 late Plymouth! I believe the return was just under an over after a signal check outside Exeter), Okehampton, first steam run up the Lickey.

    7325 is currently at Bridgnorth for a survey to assess the work needed for its next overhaul. Even if this were to start immediately it sadly wouldn't be finished in time to join 2968 on the main line. But yes, they made a formidable pair.
