I have spoken to one of the directors of KLL. There is no "trouble up mill". It simply has to do with the new rules regarding companies not being suitable to their particular situation. They are making other arrangements for the future. The...

3ABescot liked Ebbw Junction 1's post in the thread SVR General Discussion.
I had a very good afternoon on the railway yesterday. I took the DMU shuttle (I think that it was 51941 / 52064 / 50593?) from Kidderminster to Highley, visited The Engine House and then went onto Bridgnorth behind 13268. After a quick pint in...

Although the current market is not enthusiast driven, I feel the 71000 £99 no frills Euston-Carlisle rtn (steam from Crewe)changed the game. The majority of enthusiasts have been priced out of the trains, which combined with a box on the back and...

3ABescot liked 60044's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
One of the first myths the LNERCA dispelled in its early days was that teak was an expensive wood, although it has become more so since then, and a decent stock of both heavy structural timber from the either side of the heart wood from logs cut...

3ABescot liked Miff's post in the thread Accounting for Steam Locomotives (ex Flying Scotsman thread).
It's a dodge to get around registration regulations - for some reason it's easier to register a replica aircraft if it can claim an 'existing' identity off the back of a data plate rather than register as a 'new' one. For the sake of the...

3ABescot liked Gladiator 5076's post in the thread Saphos Trains 2026.
You have made the assumption there that the steam railtour market is enthusiast driven, which these days is far from correct. Yes a few enthusiast based tours have a small market share, but most Saphos, SD and VT tours also run with a diesel. So...

There’s another thread, dating back years, where that discussion has gone round in more circles than the wheels of a 9F at 90mph

No issue probably. I'd guess it's keeping the goodwill of the business, which isn't bad thing. Steam Dreams having been for many years a distinctive and respected Southern based operation, with Watercress Line connections and green carriages.
