The new issue of Narrow Gauge News (NGRS) says it is hoped that Gertrude will be at Leighton Buzzard August 29th-31st, There's also a picture of...
Could it be a mental asylum railway? I've seen something similar in an edition of The Railway Magazine from 1934 (which I don't have with me at...
URL for the video please?
When I was a kid, I remember often being bought a Gomm badge, if there was one available, of the loco that I'd just travelled behind - I think my...
The boiler frame (but not necessarily the boiler it's carrying). As you've realised, it's all a bit arbitrary for the near-identical NGG16s from...
Expect 140 to enter service... gradually. Starting with one of its power units under one end of no. 138 when it re-enters service later this year....
There's probably never going to be a satisfactory way to decide where miniature stops and narrow gauge starts, and this is nothing new. For...
The unrestored 18" Stirling Single that Preston have is not the one that was at Fairbourne in the 1920s and 1930s, and then went to Jaywick, was...

Re: WHR, has it a future? And your evidence for this political storm is what, please? While the railway is attempting to promote Beddgelert as...
That update was deliberately a bit vague, as all I know so far about why no. 143 was failed on the way back was "linkage", shouted by a friend...
And here's the tour at its destination... [attachment=0:1btgrtiw]railtour-060609-05.jpg[/attachment:1btgrtiw]
In that case, yes, a test train - and I ought to have remembered that my current avatar shows the exact same formation at Hafod Ruffydd the...
