Hope I’m not hijacking the thread by asking this, as it applies not to the reversing rod, but to an 8F modification. I know some members of the...
I think these two posts bring up rather interesting points, I think when it comes to the public perception of new build steam locos, far and away...
That’s a rather handy tool for someone like me indeed, thanks. Though doesn’t the fact that someone has had to make that sort of prove our point,...
They certainly do, I wouldn’t notice if they plonked the plates on a similar loco! In fact, unless it’s a Castle or a King (which look...
So some made in overseas then, pretty far south indeed, did any of these not make it back, what class were they, 25s? 27s?
I was reading Warwickshire railways.com as I wanted to know more about the railway history around my university and while reading up on Nuneaton...
Indeed, I have seen this logo multiple times on various other things but never on locomotives, hence my initial confusion I would suspect most...
So it is, I didn’t spot that at first, oops, I was thinking more among the lines of the LNER logo, or is this just a photographic thing as well,...
[ATTACH] I was browsing the rail uk photo library when I came across this image of what I believe to be a Thompson Q1 shunting tank engine. This...

If it gets too standard they could always borrow a proper pre- grouping product as a stopgap , the L&Y class 27 from the ELR should suffice and...
Well, 957 is currently sat in the oxenhope exhibition shed and to my knowledge overhaul has not yet begun, as for 752 i saw bits of it around...
I would hazard a guess that this is because many existing locos in a current state of disrepair have steamed before in preservation, so many older...
Built in Leeds? sold, I'll have one, nice looking thing too
Yep, I enlarged the image to have a look, it certainly does, interesting decorative choice
I'd have a L&Y Dreadnought, a L&Y 7f, both large and small boilered versions, a L&Y class 28 and a.... Oh what the heck, I'll have an example of...
What about hardwicke, what kind of state is that in, I would love to see the precedent in service as the last time it steamed in preservation was...
