Sad announcement on FB, "Open Day on 26th October 2026 will be the last for the Gartell Light Railway." "We do intend to keep things operational for a while for special events, just to keep the railway alive a little longer, without the...

4150 sounds fantastic. Hard to beat a prairie on the valley.

I do wish them well with Derek and the 'new' F class. Though I would one day love to see No 101A steam again. Its now over 20 years since that engine moved under its own steam. I don't know what the appetite there is for another big engine after...

I'm sure @Nathanjw032 will confirm, but the plan was for 101 to enter the works once 73050 is complete. It'll be a few years though, unless some mystery benefactor gives the railway loads of money.

That I recall was documented in a slim book about Blue Peter from the early 70s I recollect having, think maybe bought at Dinting Railway Centre. It was a history of the loco and information about the plans for it in preservation, including the...
