Technically, only No. 46512 (assuming you're referring to the three engines currently in service) is in ownership of the railway. Even then, @Foxontour would be better to ask if it's the Company or the Trust that owns it, as I cannot recall that...

I should be delighted if 76079 were restored to mainline standards; I had some great trips behind her 20 0r so years ago.

I did not get out much for the gala as I did not feel great over the weekend and the little I did has taken me until today to recover. So just a few images from Friday and Saturday that involved little walking, but does include a rare image of...

A number of people are including the 9F in the future steam fleet. I seem to recall that the loco is there for contract overhaul and no decision has been made yet on where it will run when it is completed. Speaking of which, @Foxontour will the...

I don't think that vision has been at the NYMR since the days of Philip Benham. The problem is that is now being run with "commercial vision" and all that vision can see is the route to the bottom via the lowest common denominator. I don't...

Now if only we still had that superb GN Saloon to go with it - it looks an absolute treat serving up market cream teas on another railway now, but that would seem to be a railway with the vision that is sadly lacking on the NYMR these days. Peter

NELPG News 352 mentions a NELPG Diamond Jubilee gala on the 24/25 October with all four group locos as a separate event. Yet to be confirmed on NYMR website, fingers crossed for a positive outcome.

At one stage there was a suggestion of one of the Cheddleton based S160s possibly obtaining approval for the mainline.

Agreed. Can't wait to see them back. This years 'theme' is the NELPG anniversary as well is it not? Would love to travel on them behind the K1!

It was 1985 and I was two - definitely not something I remember! 48151 has been to Whitby in more recent years. Whether you'd want to use an 8 coupled loco to Whitby on a regular basis is another matter.

My reaction to the post by @black5 was that "at last" there is good news on this front. But I'm not going to give praise for fixing a situation that should never have arisen.

Mentioned in passing elsewhere was the million pound donation from October was even more generous at 2 million! : https://archive.is/2j8v8. Certainly gives the railway the leg room to invest in a strong locomotive for the future. I probably...
