From yesterday's RPSI email bulletin (in relation to the Steam & Jazz train on Friday 19th, but of relevance to the question about No. 4 and the...
Belfast & County Down No. 30, at Cultra. (By 1948, half their locos were 4-4-2 tanks.) Nice pic here.
Absolutely. Today's email news from the RPSI indicates that the boiler has just gone back into GNR(I) No. 85 "Merlin"...
I've just been taking a salutary look back at some of the old backups of the web site from the late 90s and early 2000s... fascinating! One of the...
IIRC the South Devon Railway (but back in Dart Valley Railway days) ran into Totnes station 1985-87?
Just a few based on our trip back in the autumn: * Drainage at Abergynolwyn playground, as already mentioned in the other thread! * What is the...
Can't disagree. Slightly more serious suggestion, then, from someone who has necessarily gone from regular TR volunteer to less frequent visitor...
Yes, but I'm struggling to see where the big savings specifically in S&T spending on the TR are going to come from. Errrm, yes. Taking the token...
Absolutely (and I really don't think I'm saying that just because of having been very involved in the Great Token Instrument Rewiring of the mid...
In many ways it would be lovely to see one again - which can of course be said of very many now-extinct classes. What seems rather more likely...
Still at Moor St this evening.
Zigackly!
The query is not about whether the driver could see the white light - but whether the driver can see the crossing itself and satisfy himself that...
IIRC, one of the requirements for not having to stop would be that the driver has to be able to stop at the driver's warning light if the crossing...
My first footplate ride, on the footplate of "Tyrone" on the (now closed) Shane's Castle Railway, running round at Shane's Castle station. I was 3.
You are clearly rather more closely acquainted with the crossing than most of us here. My own experience of standing in the middle of the road at...
Obviously what we haven't seen is the report from ORR itself, but rather the paper's summary of the railway spokesman's summary of it. But I...
I really cannot imagine Castle Caereinion with anything more than the current level crossing arrangements, but ... Mid Wales railway faces huge...
I know what you mean, but the question doesn't quite make sense in this situation. The FR is still run by the original company, incorporated by...
Visited one NG line this summer where the first train of the day (as advertised on the web site) didn't run, so first train was an hour later...
