Limited space on site at Kemsley Down has seen the thinning out of the number of wagons during my lifetime as well, not to mention how little...
The update on the 26th mentions that it may be if not purchased and/or relocated. https://www.bluebell-railway.com/brps/whats_new/ I did have a...
As the railway only has undercover room for about 5.5 to 6 vehicles, the opportunity to place the recently out of traffic Leader in the 1 to 1...
At least regarding the boiler, I doubt it could be anything other than the spare from Bowaters. There are 3 P-class boilers on the list of boilers...
A view from probably the most common angle of Bear from September this year (it's also the more presentable side). It will be a bit strange to see...
45596 working up to speed at Bax Crossing, between Sittingbourne & Teynham. [ATTACH]
As far as I am aware, last week 2999 was in the shed at Didcot getting it's planned repaint that was delayed by it's MHR vacation.
And even more tardy, but since they are of far better quality than my contribution to the Medway Valley Pullman thread, a brace of shots taken...
The 47 was providing a fair deal of shove about 3/4 the way up Sole Street Bank from the sound of it, but might have eased off after that....
I suppose you could banish the Thumper to that future Ardingly branch... ;)
£6.2 billion for the pair, which isn't terrible. A better naval comparison for construction cost overruns would be the early days of the...
The 4700s were a successful design (when with the No.7), and calling them an evolutionary dead end is a bit mean, given they lasted 40 years with...
You might be putting words in my mouth, clearly it is not 'great' support in comparison to new build juggernauts a la A1slt, but my point of...
I would contest that assumption, I could use the same evidence to prove a 4700 is popular. Of course that does depend on how popular is defined,...
You can argue that three successive ownerships failed to restore the locomotive, which isn't a lie. But if that was to meant to make a point about...
As great a workhorse as Melior is, it's probably best that Premier's holidays are of short duration, until Superb is back in play. Plus we do have...
I did include it as an example of a new build that was was under the GWS' direction, at least at first, but it did get spun off to be independent...
As already said, 4700s were nominally limited to 60mph back in the day, but of course they didn't have speedos fitted, and I suspect that while...
This possibility was rejected I believe some years ago, the choice being between the No.1 boiler (former 2861) and a new-build No.7 - where the...
Pass, but it wouldn't surprise me given it had only to work across the relatively flat marshes on 3.4 mile round trips for the last 50 years.
