    With torrential rain off and on all day, most of my shots today were, in my opinion, below par. Below are the best of a mediocre bunch. https://www.flickr.com/photos/90397953@N02/55312687859/in/photostream/...

    [ATTACH] The S&C really did itself proud weather wise today, wind, rain and plenty of it greeted the inaugural 'Fellsman' rail tour headed by No. 60532 'Blue Peter' as it worked 1Z46 away from Helwith Bridge over the River Ribble heading for...

    https://www.nymr.co.uk/about/memberships/become-a-member/ £60, £150 or £500 per year for an adult. Middle one is the best value if you plan to visit more than three times a year. I wonder how much uptake there'll be for collecting Moorsline from...

    To answer some of this . I'll start with the Black 5's. The two on the line are from different batches so have different size springs. It seems that 44806 has now broken four springs in as many weeks and has used up all its spares. I understand...

    Given the rather demanding nature of the line, that feels very low.

    Wow, We get close to that on maintenance on the 4x4 vehicles in a year if we have a wet winter. No wonder stuff gets run into the ground. Chris

    I'm not sure it's even that at the moment - it all seems to be about the diner. When we visited last year it was in the middle of a dry spell and high fire risk (Langdale fire was at it its peak) so everything was diesel hauled, except the diner...

    I might not be right either, but my impression of visiting the NYMR at least annually over the past few years is that the only priority is delivering the bucket and spade brigade to Whitby, by whatever means possible, and overlooking/overcharging...

    Yesterday 44806 was very dead with a replacement spring needed and no spares, despite having two Black Fives on the line. I would have liked to have ridden to Whitby on a steam hauled 9.20 from Pickering but this was a class 37. 92134 was...

    [MEDIA] Here's my footage of the Earl & the Two Manors in action with The Whistling Ghost tour yesterday. I filmed the Earl at Charfield, Fordgate and Cogload Junction, and the Manors at Churchlands Bridge, Washford and Williton. I hope you...

    In no way am I trying to criticise anyone at the nymr in my post, and I understand the immense challenge of maintaining a large and varied loco fleet running 5-7 days a week with such steep gradients and mileage. What I would say, though, is...

  13. silversteellady liked Simon Smith's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    It does make you wonder about the levels of accountability at the NYMR, with a repeated failure to deliver the locos needed for traffic is this just deemed as acceptable by the board? If in other industries machines were not available for...

    I also visited yesterday, my first ever visit to the line (taking advantage of the fact I was staying in Birmingham Saturday night, and there's an hourly direct bus from the city centre to Brownhills West, only 15min walk from the line). Despite...
