The Haworth bridge replacement was also proactive rather than reactive. Same as the Spa Valley's recent bridge replacement. Neither line was shut for an appreciable amount of time. The NYMR have seemingly been caught on the hop with Bridge 42,...

Whilst there are doubtless things that can be cross-referred, there are massive differences caused by the technology. 1)You can build a girder bridge deck almost entirely in a factory, so the site time is completely different. 2)You don't need...

I visited for the first time over the gala, its a lovely line with lots of potential. I think the only downside was the seemingly need to thrash the locos everywhere. Even the halls working on a 4 coach set seemed to be driven very hard, may...

So about £1500 per person in round figures, for which you get a day out, meal etc. I suspect to the typical railway enthusiast it sound like a lot of money. But for the corporate day out for city types - probably in the right ball park. A quick...

See https://www.belmond.com/trains/europe/uk/belmond-british-pullman/celia for the official blurb. And, picking a trip at random, it's a mere £17,500 for the 8th July Oxford trip for exclusive use for up to 12 people.

Another Brighton Belle driving car - 93 - has also been restored and named Celia, this time for Belmond as a private hire vehicle which can run with the British Pullman. More weight for Clan Line? https://flic.kr/p/2s8YA9e...

I wonder if the NYMR have ever spoken to the Keighley and Worth Valley about this bridge. The latter replaced a bridge at a total cost of around £1.25 million. 80% of that cost was funded by the Communities Ownership Fund, the net cost to the...

Following on from the Bob Lund fatality a few years ago, shunting on the NYMR is a non-preferred activity, only done when it has to be done. It's not something I totally agree with but I can well understand why this is the case. You also need...

Spectacular stuff from Judy in the videos, thanks! [ATTACH] I’ve added my shot of auto tank and Port Talbot tank entering Bewdley on Thursday afternoon. It was mentioned in my early post but didn’t upload.
