    It is interesting as it’s not the first time that there has been an issue with non qualified or under trained staff - this was one of the issues identified back in 2008 after the Lydney Town level crossing gate collision.

    And I suspect that there will be many volunteer based organisations that would read that report and go "there but for the grace of God..."

    A slightly different look back at Don Bishop's charter with 78019 on freight. This time with the Queen Mary brake van in tow on the rear of the freight.

    Noticed on social media that the DFR is running Rennes and 9681 double headed on next Wednesday's services as a bit of a post-overhaul test for the Austerity. Nice little mid-week off-season bonus!

    The DFR Steam Department have also launched an instagram page, dfrsteamdept
    On which subject, does anyone know what's happening with HE 2411 and 2413, the 50550s?
