Even if the T1 successfully broke the record, for 99.9% of the world it will all be a bit "meh". A bit like the efforts people spend with old...
I just checked the Jacobite price, and it starts at £76, which isn't hugely more than the NYMR £50 or so. Admittedly there is not a great discount...
Some more photos here:...
How do West Coast operate the Jacobite services? With paid staff or volunteers, or a mixture? My thought is if it works there, couldn't it work at...
So indulge an off-the-wall thought. I was thinking about the NYMR, and in particular the Whitby situation, which in many ways seems to be a 6...
Yes, that was the tightest year - 73082, 80151, 541, 65 all year; 263 for the beginning of the year and 6989 from June. I guess technically there...
I agree that there is absolutely no chance of seeing Mallard run close to 100mph in the future. But as a restoration candidate for more modest...
I don't think that is quite true - I'm not sure we have ever been down to only 4 steam locos since the early 1970s. We are thinner now than in...
Yes. In our case, I could see that the minimum might be that the duty OS, and maybe the Senior Station Master at each of four stations (though...
I should say straight away that I am not a lawyer, so this is an interpetation, not a legal judgement. I also admit I have not read the...

On the Gift Aid on fares point: how that works out is still to come. But my sense in the NYMR case is that it was not the Gift Aid per se that was...
I think it is staying all Summer - I heard 6 months. It’s not listed in any of the sets for Bluebell on Parade and it would certainly be included...
The Bluebell is indeed going down that route. My understanding is that a CCBS is a comparatively recent legal entity; Railways that set their...
For BRPS members, the EGM / AGM documents are now online (and will be posted to members), including candidates for Trustee elections. Also...
I wonder how much a wash out costs? Tom
Bradley gives the following notes on comparative trials between 446 (compound) and 448 (simple) on Waterloo - Salisbury expresses, which took...
I wonder if the Swanage Railway would, at its first overhaul, allow their Adams 4-4-0 to be converted on the Wordsell-Von Borries system, as per...
Ah, the convertible 4MT sub class :) Tom
I'm kind of surprised it hasn't generated more noise on NP than it has, but for what it is worth, the GWSR Facebook confirmed that 45110 will be...
