For the avoidance of doubt, I wasn't advocating a Whitby -Grosmont NYMR, merely saying that financially it would be a better bet than Whitby - Goathland, as advocated by @paul1609. As far as I'm concerned, the full 24 mile Whitby & Pickering...

a bit closer to home the Belfast to Londonderry Line crosses the corner of Runway 26 at City of Derry Airport. The railway signals are placed to danger before a plane takes off/ lands....

This one here on the Taieri Gorge tourist line near Dunedin doesn't look like it will be replaced any time soon (taken last year).[ATTACH] Gisborne Airport may be the only runway/railway level crossing left but I remember leaving Peshawar to go...

torgormaig 回复主题: North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
I don't know about bizzare but very sad. We know that 2253 only goes out when qualified crew (loco inspectors) are available. 926 is the only other currently serviceable steam loco in traffic and as usual its availability is somewhat erratic....

No, it never has been and isn't to this day, even on the side that is "complete". 34051 had a wandering life in its early preservation days - Brighton, Tyseley, Didcot - with no inventry of what was on the loco at that time so bits did just walk....

I think that 34051 needed all its "bits" for itself so I guess the answer is no! Peter

I disagree. I can think of no reason why they would not run a full steam service if they had a fleet of serviceable locos. The intention is there but the fact is that there are no longer the resources available to deliver this. I think that they...

Maybe, but think of how many thousands of miles it clocked up going nowhere when it was a working exhibit on those rollers. And all that with negliable maintenance. It could be the highest mileage MN in preservation:) Peter

I think there are two separate conversations going on here, which are being elided, not necessarily helpfully. One is the “is it prudent to run steam in the current weather conditions?” question. That is clearly a local decision, based on the...
