I have to say great co-operation between heritage railways, the Foxfield Railway is offering ticket acceptance tomorrow for Churnet Valley ticket holders affected this weekend.

Without speculating in any way, from the photgraphs,the leading (rear) tender bogie has derailed whilst the front bogie has remained on the track. The rear bogie has seemingly come away from its pivot. All eight loco driving wheels have also...

My heart hurts for the Churnet Valley. These sort of incidents can be broadcasted within minutes of what happened. No time for the heat to come out of the sting of the incident before it appears online.

We (or at least, I) don't know what is included in the quoted £250K. It may well include the hire of the scaffolding and propping until it is no longer required and not just the installation. If I was costing up the works, I'd have certainly...

Getting slightly off-topic but since the KWVR's excellent food and drink offering has been mentioned, it's worth noting also that in addition to the Old Parcels Office at Keighley, they also own a pub just opposite the station in Haworth. As I...

The target figure to pay for the propping and associated scaffolding was said to be £250,000 so not quite there but probably achievable. There will then be the need to pay weekly rental on both scaffold and temporary bridge supports. I haven't...

There are plenty enough Pacers for them to settle down in a select number of locations and a representative slice be held and preserved properly to tell the story. Several sets will be lost, and that's fine, spares will change hands and an...

Thank you for the insight. I must admit I was a little confused over the arrival of the 110 and the German railbus both requiring a decent amount of work before service.

The 110 set was sought as a direct replacement for the 104. Neither are owned by Llangollen Railcars. For info, the nine 104, 108 & 110 vehicles are all hires from private groups/owners, whilst the four 105, 109 and 127 vehicles are owned...

The last time I drove a train over Broom Lane Bridge at 25mph was in 2017 when the speed restriction came into force. It was certainly a real privilege to be the first to drive 31430 over our brand new bridge at 25mph this evening! Chris...

Whilst waiting for the seaside express the competition came trundling through, heading for Crewe: [ATTACH] Then an hour or so later the pair of Type 3s returned. It seems they picked up a souvenir headboard from one of the seaside shops in...

Had rather a cracking afternoon on 813 today. Brilliant loco as always. Been an excellent two days so far, and the feedback seems to be positive

[ATTACH] Lovely day with trains running exceptionally to time (well once I arrived, had to come down from Manchester through the overhead electric chaos). Services seemed a bit lightly loaded outside of peak hours and the Duke's rake, but we'll...
