    I feel like this is great news, and I hope that the feeling from inside the organisations involved is similar! I do hope that 35025 does return to the mainline, I have memories of seeing her at Loughborough when I was younger and thinking that...

    Please do be patient with us as we work out the details. I have noted my inbox and responded as best I can but have and will continue to refer people to the press statement above and to refer to our communications officer. Please do not reach...

    I hope your post and communications with MNLPS members will reassure people such as such as @Steamage (See his post #309). He has raised some perfectly valid points - to which I could add the issue of support crews if both 35025 and 35028 were...

    We need two get the Q1 out of the NRM, you could steam that on old telephone directories - apparently :rolleyes: Tom

    VoR no. 9 and Hunslet 0-4-2T 3752/1952 at Statfold are the only ones that spring to mind.

    That box is ripe for a little sensor operated voice over! Great job as ever guys.

    Congrats and thanks to all concerned. I really must try to get down to see Llywfan whilst I still can.

    Is removing people acceptable? I had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity (by freakish good luck, not even planned) to take a photo of the Hastings DEMU in Scotland. An apparent fellow railway fan walked down the platform and ruined the photo ... I...

    Saw a lot of photos from the weekend. Hopefully the Strathspey management have confidence to pick up events like this again. LMS BTK 27043 has returned after contract overhaul and looks mint. Photo credits to Graham Maxstone

    [ATTACH] Wonderful day out on the WHR behind Garratt 130 today. Can confirm that Snowdonia is looking quite lush and green unlike the landscape 70 miles south in Mid-Powys! The countryside was spectacular as ever, the railway living up its...

    Having been a long time supporter of 35025 (from its GCR days) I was very pleased that SLL did take it on and proceeded with its preservation and protection. I am even more pleased that MNLPS are to restore it to Main Line running...eventually...

    Not a great surprise if true. The IOWSR will clearly never have any use for 46447 (other than perhaps for spare parts for the tank versions.) Are there any conditions attached to the original donation of the locos by the Ivatt Trust that would...

    I read that it's gone to arbitration due to both parties pointing fingers at each other. Presumably that's why nothing can be said at the moment.
