    Haulwen sounded phenomenal going up the bank, probably heard her right the way down the valley at Pontypool! Spent a couple of hours there today until the weather put pay to any meaningful linesiding. Looked a really well thought out gala and...

    It is an ECML diversion day so I suspect NR have decided Carlisle is too busy around the time the tour would normally get there. But agree the web page should now be updated, I have mentioned it to Kelly.

    Took me back to Mountain Ash and Graig Merthyr in 1976. Typical Valleys weather. Well done to all. Bring back Sir Gomer!

    Diesel support or dragged? I believe a WCRC is at the diesel bash later in the week. Was a little light on its feet yesterday in wet rail conditions under heavy dining train.

  8. 21B liked Jamessquared's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

    I think that's another of your legally correct and emotionally wrong answers! In other words, I have no doubt that your reading of the law is correct. But the NYMR desperately needs its stakeholders to feel engaged, and being able to ask...

  11. lynbarn liked brmp201's post in the thread Barnstaple and Yeo Valley Railway Trust - B&YVRT.

    Also worth mentioning that the Home - Barnstaple & Yeo Valley Railway Trust website is now live, where you can read about the Snapper Track Appeal (if you don't want to watch the video).

  12. lynbarn replied to the thread Collection X.

    I didn't think the VofR owned Jubilee 1897. I thought the National Trust still owned it, or whoever owned it while it was at Towyn, and that it was only loaned to the guys who had plans to rebuild part of the Penthyn railway, but I could be wrong...

    Tut Tut Mr Dunn, Jubilee 1897 is not a Hunslet but a Manning & Wardle ;-)
