I’m surprised that 13268 is there, I would have thought it would have been away being made ready for the mainline, they haven’t got long to the first run.

There really isn't a lot to do, bar fitting the electronics - which apparently has a date confirmed with the contractor according to the last YouTube update. Don't forget it went to Derby via rail last year, so it is already a known entity to...

Photos from my 2 day visit start with Friday, which turned out a very wet afternoon at Bridgnorth!!, excellent running all day i overheard a conversation at Bridgnorth between some footplate crew that 4150 is a very strong engine, far better than...

Another excellent day at the Severn Valley today - it always delivers the goods! All locos seemed to be behaving well and things were running pretty much to time most of the day. Highlight for me was seeing 46115 for the first time in many...

I've crossed paths with it several times today and it's only now that I'm sat opposite it at Bewdley that I've noticed the roundel says SVR rather than GWR. Very nicely done and IMO a nice touch to add a little interest until the final paint job...

No, it will be for static catering at Holt station. It has been modified by previous owners and internally actually resembles more of an RBR than an RKB as a seating area has been added into about a third of the vehicle. It isn't very similar any...

Repton, Sir Nigel Gresley and the 9F out today, with all but two Grosmont departures steam hauled. That's more like it.

Because it hasn’t been painted. It’s a mix of undercoat and patch green to get it through running in and testing. The paint shop has a full diary until January.
