    We did Pullman dining on the double headed Plymouth trip last September. It was a good experience, staff were well-organised and friendly/welcoming. Food was OK, comparable to RTC dining (I have not done Saphos dining so cannot compare with...

    I don’t think I’ve seen this point in the discussion of trains terminating at Goathland. For anything more than very short term (ie. half term week), do you really want to be terminating trains all day at Goathland and fully unloading trains with...

    I don’t think a method of long term repair has been decided upon, as yet, but I could be wrong. The aim has got to be to run trains this year, I would have thought. My thoughts are that it would be sensible to sacrifice the 2026 Santa season and...

    I doubt anyone can answer this at the moment, but with my old project management hat on, would it feasible to prop it and then repair whist propped to avoid further disruption in future?

    In a long and considered post that final paragraph (above) stood out for me. Whether it's true or not isn't the point. If one person who seems to care about the NYMR thinks it then there are probably others and that is not good news.

    All true - most railway GMs (or equivalent role) don't post regularly elsewhere in a personal capacity. The notable exceptions being Gus Dunster (SVR) and Jonnie Pay (Spa Valley). Robin Coombes used to give occasional insights to the running of...

    It is some way off because a lot of money needs to be found. Even then it will be an historic item and need a degree of cosseting. The 150 is currently and will for a while be a darn sight easier to get spares for too.

    They'll fit in perfectly, what with already having a station ending in Road due to it being nearly 3 miles away from the village it's meant to serve.

    I can't really speak for the mk2s as I wasn't there (except wouldn't it be nice to have some ETH coaches for the Diesels?) I suspect (and I'd guess the PTBs suspect too) that the Sprinter's main bonus is providing the edge services, the 10:50...

    Exactly that - it allows for a two-train service on the days when it's not justified to steam a second loco - so a 10:50 off Alton instead of 12:00 on the one-train or 1+ timetable.

    It surely is a pragmatic solution to the off season 2nd train issue, which the thumper could have been the solution to if work was not needed on it. If you could have both the sprinter and thumper available you then have cover for each other in...
