35B antwortete auf das Thema Brighton Belle update.
I'm not going to argue, but as Car 292 hadn't been used in ~60 years, I'm glad to see it is earning it's keep, even in this form. I never knew the Belle when it ran, but my mother told a story of being taken on it by her parents on her way to...

All style and no substance. Just right for the punters it's aimed at. And it's another former BB car with most of its real history stripped out for today's champagne and canapes set. Yes, I see the irony in that comment, but it would be nice if...

In actual fact the temporary structure is, in effect, the existing structure with additional scaffolding support. The "downstream" option would appear to have been a red (freshwater) herring.

I don't have your experience of older designs Tom but concur that the 4MTT is the finest of the bunch. Did 42085 visit Bluebell or am I misremembering? As far as your experience of a Black 5 goes, I don't know which it was but I think you must...

Miff is entirely correct. I'm Maddie, I am currently responsible for looking after 120. It is most likely to steam next, although as you would imagine it is a slow process. 120 is in good condition with a recent works visit in South Africa...

Well thanks for making the train crew's life even more difficult than it already is. If for some unlikely reason the ORR have not already seen this they will have now and the Guard and Train Manager will be called to account for not policeing the...

I was an engineer in the chemical industry all my working life and firstly for our sins they were always referred to as vacuum pumps, be they recip, liquid ring or whatever. However, in design and specification, we always used absolute pressure...

A certain loco owner has posted a photo on Facebook of one of his machines at a rather damp Fort William, ready for departure.

Well, the last of the Rhymney locomotives the 56s were inspired by was withdrawn from service in 1957, so there must be few people left who would know.

I notice on the web cam that the Bubble Car has been released from the goods shed after a internal and external refurb.

Interesting. It's curious that WC itself hasn't made more of the fact passenger service has resumed though, especially considering how much noise the firm has made about "being forced off the rails" in many press outlets. Perhaps they've managed...

Thank you Tom for a more hopeful report on 80100 than the person I spoke to at last year's Giants of Steam, who told me that it may end up being nothing more than a source of spares to keep 80151 running. I very much hope not. It never worked on...
