    Andy Wilson. ELR bought a more than half share of the loco circa 1992, and it was moved to Kirkby where Ian finished it off on behalf of the ELR. It arrived at the ELR, undertook successful testing September 1993. Then Wilson promptly initiated a...

    From Steamport Southport an attempt to acquire 42765 was made, but beaten to it by Andy? Didn't get much past selling pens etc with the memorable tag line Catch a Crab A group of us had a day out to Barry to view our target probably about 1975 - 6.

    Also the 76077 is coming along nicely, a couple of years away only.

    I had a look at 7202 on Monday. It will be a long "year"! I don't like criticising voluntary activities but the state of Didcot's loco workshop wouldn't encourage me to work there.

    4253, 4150, 5539 and 5532 are all on the home straight or heading to the home straight. After them, less clear what will steam next. 5538, 9629 and 35009 are all being worked on in commercial workshops by owners of said workshops but probably...

    Next one's to return are 4253 (K&ESR) & 4150 (SVR) I believe - not sure what's following those two?

    Those coaches may be Mk2s but at least they have decent sized windows rather than the coffins we have to endure down south with their narrow strips to let the light in.

    It steamed on a candle Peter, for sure, a fireman's dream. A joy on the other side of the footplate too, I passed out for driving on it in fact though my first rostered driving turn after that was actually on 45407, dressed as 45157, because the...

    What I meant really Steve was that the Railway has acquired Black 5s, sometimes through benefaction. Clearly there are more 5s than 8fs and I don't think a complete ex BR 8f has ever actually come on the market. That said, there has been several...
