Don't under estimate yourself, or put yourselves down! A lot of the so called premier league railways are in the their own eyes, but not so much in others! I'd much rather have a small stable railway than a big one that can't get the books to...

Not that long home from my second not quite full day at that amazing event. And I can only endorse the very favourable comments posted above. Truly incredible that with the constraints that @LittleRedTrain has mentioned - TWW being a 'tight...

John Petley 回复主题: Spa Valley Railway Cuckoo Line Gala - June 13-15 2025.

I couldn't get out yesterday for a "mini steam fix" - Tornado & coach heading south from Carnforth. Today was not quite a "maxi-fix" as I was restricted to morning and evening; Mrs W was out for a long lunch and I was Maisie's designated servant...
