Another video showing a bit more of the route. I like the music, it reminds me of one of the British Rail adverts.:D [MEDIA]
Yeah I really like the Stranraer route. There are gradients on that which really make a Black 5 sweat. Keith also did the Shap route, which...
Yeah, its commonly noted in the video the driver isnt much good. Having met the man I couldn't possibly comment. :D The author actually has a...
This is coming out soon for Trains Simulator. Its set in the early 1960s, right before they started closing chunks of the network under the...
Has anyone looked into using the canopy from nearby Gloucester which I believe was due for demolition? Perhaps it might not suit the original GWR...
Well if you had the Shipston on stour branch you could do anything between 1826 and the early 60s. Admittedly the stations were open on a...
Wish I had known, I saw this HST at Swindon in 1984 or so. I think it was 002 or at the very least, one of the first ones to enter service. Did...
The real problem with Great Bear is that she was a one off, and as no more were going to be built they were left with whether to rebuild as a...
Rather than conversion, why not rebuild it as a castle and rename it 'Swindon'. The nameplates for the original are even in Steam museum. Im sure...
No, and I wouldnt suggest that it would be the GWSR that would do it. But as I point out, with plans to further redouble the Cotswold line, and...
Well the Stratford connection regularly gets written off, but there is a very good simulation that looks plausible of one option on the Stratford...
Certainly I agree with the poster who suggest Broadway will generate significant traffic. It is a miles walk from the village which means I think...
It depends on the circumstances. It was only 2 years ago Cheltenham council was exploring the idea (im not sure how seriously) of using the extant...
Id not heard that, but I cant imagine it would last long if they did. Supposedly (I may have read this in a railway magazine so Im unsure of the...
Thats a very good point actually, about just visiting the Northern stations and forgetting about the southern half. Particularly for people coming...
You remind me of something I read about the MSWJR 4-4-4 Tank engines, no 17 and 18. Supposedly they were spectacularly poor steamers, but the...
Re Tetbury, there was actually someone whom proposed it as an heritage line back in 1986, but it never came to anything Im not sure why. Shortly...
Ive often thought that with the increased number of railtours that seem to be occurring on the LT transport, it might be a pretty good idea to...
Very true, but you still have a bridge possibly out of commission, so it wouldnt be much commiseration to know he probably wont do it again. And...
Is there any reason why they cant put in a sacrificial span in front of the bridge to absorb all these hits? I pointed out on one of their blogs...
