Couldn’t they change it in steam? With Sir Berkeley out of action, as well with a couple of blown tubes,they are not having a good weekend.

[ATTACH] We sometimes see rabbits along the line but today was a bit different. Easter Bunny in action on our first day of public operation for 2026. Same again tomorrow. The loco is Justine (Jung 939 of 1906). [ATTACH]

Went with the family to the MHR today. Had to bite my tongue as the little grandson expressed disappointment that the loco didn't have a long chimney (like the ones in the cartoons) and that he couldn't hear it apart from an occasional whistle....

With respect, given the age of the driver yesterday I would say not. We didn't lose any time but I have rarely seen the Manor slip let alone four times on that bank!

On a visit to the T&DR a few years ago I was riding behind the Manor. It was a poor weather day and the loco slipped continuously on the climb to Churston and we lost a good bit of time. When we arrived at Kigswear I spoke to the fireman and...

Indeed and especially for an engine that was once the flagship of the Mid Hants Railway

I’ve become increasingly curious as to the inner workings of WCRC what with the ongoing CDL saga and motive power issues, so in an attempt to discover how Mr Smith manages to carry on unfettered like some kind of steam Trump I’ve had a poke...

34016 has donated alot of small and large components to 35018 and 34067. I am under the impression that there is absolutely no intention of ever doing it as things stand. It and 34073 are there purely as strategic spares. 48151, 45110 and 6201...

The most recent images I've seen are from April 2024 where 34016 is parked outside and doesn't look as if an overhaul had commenced.

That's a shame about 34016 if correct- it was a decent performer and seemed quite popular when on operation, and was complete.

Very pleased to see this loco on the way back, the mainline has been missing a King - the ultimate GWR design. There was the disappointment of 6023 becoming heritage line only, & never getting to prove its new chimney draughting arrangement -...

thanks colin and mike for your good wishes. they were very nice coaches indeed - closest you can experience now are the replica pickerings at welshpool. we do have an ambition to build one in the future - but are concerned whether a cleminson...

Saw a photo of 7827 out and about on Friday so decided very last minute to travel down yesterday (Saturday). Due to two late running trains I got to Paignton just as the 1230 service was about to leave, so went to Sands Road LC and saw 7827...
