Apologies for the lack of recent updates - it's all been a bit complicated! A couple of weeks ago I suffered a heart attack. I'm fine, and living only a ten minute blue light run from Papworth, one of the world's finest cardiac units, was...

silversteellady gefällt Steves Beitrag in dem Thema Nene Valley Railway.
There are several railways that have more than one loco of the same type and I’m sure there would be an outcry if it was suggested it was not a good idea. In any case, the Danish F class tanks are ideal locos for the NVR and, not being...

It also helps it's not been out of traffic for long, rather than sitting outside for several decades.

This is a small operation that struggles with support , a bit hard to provide extra departures and freight.

Thanks for the replies, I have read elsewhere they struggle for support being located to where they are, That's why we intend to support them. I'm going to scrap the mainline steam over Shap even if it's on time it means I would only get to...

The costs of the overhauls of the other two locos, which are considerably bigger, will take more time and more money than the 654 project put together. 654 is also in better condition. This is also a totally separate organisation to the NVR - we...

I braved public transport and the damp weather on Saturday to make a brief first visit for the gala. Not the intensity of activity you'd normally expect at such an event, but this friendly place has a genuine light railway feel (balcony end...

I think the Renishaw Heisler would be top of my list to see on display, if only so I could pose this on its prototype! Possibly not the most practical loco for VoR services however….

Just announced on the FB page that the N2 will be officially returning to service on 17th July. Good to have an ex-LNER locomotive back in operation. Hopefully to be joined by the B12 next year and the Y14 in the not too far off future.

Another Collection X gem has appeared out in the open! It's the Borsig, "Sotillos", late of the Sabero Railway. In related news - and full disclosure - I have recently joined the Vale of Rheidol Railway company (part time, it's a 6 hour commute)...

Could be! Never say never at the Rheidol. It does have similar power to our 2-6-2Ts - but frankly there isn't a need for it to be restored. There's already a lot of backup - including a hefty Garratt. There are two Collection X locos in the...
