silversteellady liked OldSchoolTrains2's post in the thread SVR Summer Gala - 18&19 July.

For me, the international engines have always been the NVR's USP. I remember being so excited to go there as a kid for the first time in a half term in maybe 1989, seeing something strange and black approaching wherever we were getting on and...

I don't do it as I can't spare the cash these days but I always said if I ever won the "Euromillions" lottery, a lot of heritage railways, loco groups and new builders would be getting most of it :) Oh - and I'd commission a J70 ;)

I'd heard from relatives who live nearby and know some of the people involved in the line that this might be on the cards, but they're surprised it's happening as soon as the end of the current season. I grew up very close to the line and one...

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...

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...

So the overhaul plan of locos is flexible, but as it stands 101 is still being looked at as the next big engine to go in - however if benefactor was to come along and propose all the money to fund something else then that could change...
