    You may not have many photos but the ones you have taken are excellent and really capture the atmosphere of the event. A huge thank you to you and all the team for keeping the event running. As I said before, I found it very enjoyable despite...

    You couldn’t make it up, could you?

    Well, what can I say? Epically challenging I think best sums it up. Over the course of the weekend, we had several heat-related medical emergencies including one member of crew who, whilst doing ok, is still not at all well, and a missing...

    My video filmed across Saturday-Sunday-Monday. Huge thanks to all involved in organising the event, and then dealing with all the extreme events that followed. We travelled on Saturday and Sunday, having our youngest who is 19 months old we had...

    Would like to add to the above and say well done to the GWSR gala team for getting a solid timetable in place for today, and for all your efforts this weekend. Yes, as a punter, the delays and lack of communication could sometimes be frustrating....

    I think given the heat, a crew member falling seriously ill yesterday, and the issues the GWSR faced, the emergency timetable was by far the right cause of action. The Caley at least ran today, and the Coffee Pot did venture out a bit in the...

    Maybe it can be misinterpreted but if you look closely it is talking about the Day Rover offer from June 1. It is a banner that shows up on various pages.

  9. Devonbelle liked Phil Bartlett's post in the thread 6024 King Edward 1.

    There is also the trifling matter of if something happens on the footplate there needs to be a means of escape in a hurry. I am thinking of at least one blowback incident 120919_B042012_Wood_Green.pdf with three people on the footplate of 70013...

  10. Devonbelle liked torgormaig's post in the thread 6024 King Edward 1.

    That's all very well for the driver but makes life very difficult for the fireman. The driver stays in one place but the firemans job entails him moving about the cab, needing room to swing his shovel and also keep a good lookout from his side of...
