The Jacobite is one of the subjects discussed in the latest Green Signals: [MEDIA]
If your main interest is exactly how fast a locomotive can pull a certain load up a particular bank, then you do indeed lose interest if there's...
Yes, but do we know how much running up and down it did at Tyseley. Do we know how much it will get at the GWSR before next weekend? I would hope...
I've been looking at some NLS maps. This one https://maps.nls.uk/view/103658198 clearly shows the bridge/support, but this one...
Thanks @Gladiator 5076 for the link to those pictures from various angles and dates. I have visited the site myself a few years ago but I think I...

Thank you for (a) a good question and (b) bringing this thread back to its proper subject. We will probably never know what went on the minds of...
Although Tornado is indeed somewhat more complex, I don't think the third cylinder and associated stuff makes much difference to the task of...
I have taken the liberty of quoting this post verbatim in an email to the Trust. Let's see what they have to say.
