  1. YorkyLad liked 26D_M's post in the thread Jacobite 2026.

    Is it that obvious? It seems to me WC is the one bleating about the urgency of getting the Jacobite up and running. If you have enough compliant coaches to do so then get them earning and worry about possible breakdowns afterwards? Is there a...

    To be fair I don't think 10A is relying on sources, it's just a product of the vacuum that wibblers, myself included, are putting hearsay out there based on what the jungle drums are saying. If the rumours are correct though and a compliant set...

    Meanwhile, in the North Bay at Scarborough a banner invites people to meet 37264. Sadly the people responsible for this are unable to spell the fuel it runs on... How many marketing Professionals does it take to spellcheck 9 words? [ATTACH]

    I think you need to see this from the customers perspective. This is an experience business. As far as I know the NYMR are still charging full price despite only offering a shortened length. If most of the customers have then come to see a steam...

    It probably is but I won't be surprised if this weekend when the Yellow timetable kicks off, the Mk1's are hauled in the same way. Just with a Black 5 going tender first on one end instead of 29. Maybe I'm just over thinking it but IMO most of...

  7. YorkyLad liked Jamessquared's post in the thread The 10A Allocation.

  9. YorkyLad liked jasa76's post in the thread Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.

    I called in today as I was passing by and haven't visited for a while. I'd parked at Embsay and was quite suprised that the car park wasn't that busy compared to previous visits so should have been an early warning sign. I'd tried looking at the...
