Yesterday was one of the most surreal, and most fun, railtours I have ever been on. Wandering around a deserted Bristol Temple Meads was like...
Water stop at a deserted Oxford station. Bit of discussion on board about how long it has been since a steam locomotive last watered directly in...
At BTM ready for return trip. Whole train has been turned.
70000 at Swindon. No need for the pathing stop at Challow, so have stopped here for photos instead.
Currently at water stop in Oxford. Really good running so far. It's really weird being the only train running. Stations are only being opened for...
Looks like there have been some adjustments to the timings in the Oxford area, possibly as a result of the strike timetable now being finalised....
Personally, I would take anything Rail Advent say with a pinch of salt. Although, in this case they have a 1 in 3 chance of being right! I do...
After their usual break during leaf fall season, the Saphos programme resumes on Saturday with the Great Western Christmas Envoy, which I've...
VT really have had a rough year so far haven't they? Only 2 of the ones I booked on this year have actually run - Welsh Marches on 5th March and...
Next year's trips were put on the website today. Still going through the programme but it looks like the usual mix. One thing I have noticed is a...
Have booked on the South Devon Express. A trip with Tornado starting from my local station is just too good to miss.
It's actually Bristol-Newquay, not Falmouth. Either way, your point about the turntable is still valid. The guy who did Barrow Hill is renovating...
The "Cream Tea" trains that various railways operate have always struck me as probably being very lucrative. All the railway has to do is buy in...
Yes it's rather unfortunate timing with the rail strike this weekend. It's not helped by the SVR charging for parking in their Kidderminster car...
I was at the steam gala the other weekend and it was quiet then as well, I had a table to myself on every train I went on. Normally SVR steam...
I certainly wouldn't want to be a charter organiser right now. An uncertain market, where what used to work as a day out doesn't work now, coupled...
The Oxford trip has disappeared completely, so I think that one has been canned
I do think an element of "S&C fatigue" is slipping in. There are steam-hauled trips over the S&C practically every weekend. I myself have done 4...
They're certainly taking a beating on their Trip Advisor page.
A grand day out, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Yes there was a bit of shovage up Shap, but given that we were out of path and had already delayed a...
