    Here is a short video I captured yesterday of Class 31 Charybdis returning the 4-vep unit 3417 from the Watercress Line to her home at Strawberry Hill. I ventured near to the site of Farnham Junction which was part of the old Tongham branch. Turn...

    My understanding from earlier posts in this thread is that where 34101 is concerned there is nothing to prevent the owners from taking it away as soon as it is finished which has effectively brought work to a halt until some assurance is found....

    I got the impression from one of the volunteers that 44806 was bought as a short term fix while other locos were overhauled, and would them likely have sat out of traffic for a long time had Peter Best not bought it. As it turns out, the other...

    I had no idea 44806 had been sold to Peter Best but still kept at the railway. I wonder what the benefactor who bought it for NYMR a number of years ago thought of that?? A bit like selling on a very generous valuable Christmas present you've...

    That's a reasonably accurate analysis of how the Railway has carried on with the locos it owns over the years. Work on 34101 effectively stopped once it got to a rolling chassis a good few years ago. It did start on the boiler but after a...

  10. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Jamessquared în subiectul North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    Well, I suspect the answer is probably fairly obvious, even if a little uncomfortable: that over a period of many years, they haven't put sufficient money into loco overhauls to keep up with a rolling programme of maintaining a stable fleet size....

    I could be accused of over simplification but did the passenger figures during oil firing on the ffestiniog suffer due to the fuel used? I don't remember families walking away. If it goes chuff and blows out steam, that is enough for most people...

    From my own experience when I visited last year another negative in terms of visitors experience with the use of diesels is that within a very short time of having left Pickering the coaches were full of the unpleasant smell of diesel fumes which...

    There is a path for Grosmont - Midland Road on the 15th, so presumably yes, good guess! --- --- --- --- -- -- --- I was surprised to see 31466 out yesterday - it's been on 'emergency use only' for quite some time due to the state of its...
