Brilliant news. Always wanted to see this loco run, happy to see that it'll not be a long wait away.

No “oh dear” from me. Furness no.20 is a fabulous piece of kit. Just a pity the MHR hasn’t got any 4-wheelers for her to haul.

Having a restored GCR train set operating on its home turf, so to speak, is very appealing, but like most railways, it all comes down to having the money. Maybe if enough of us all bought a ticket each on this Friday's Euro lottery and one of us...

The GCR (Leics.) was once home to Barnums 664 & 666; 664 was externally restored and operated a few times as an empty shell (I believe it even once housed a board meeting on the move); 666 the NRM example just sat around. They also saved suburban...

I think @lynbarn approves of the B&YV Trust approach, provided each incremental section of reconstructed line is at least long enough to house a pair of 2ft gauge Indian Pacific locos sourced from Collection X and also includes a fun fair to...

To be frank, the only realistic reason to have a Halt at CFL would be if we could not get to PE - period. But then we would have to solve the problem of stopping a train on a steep gradient 'cos we can't raise the trackbed at CFL (been there,...

That's very interesting I wonder when more information or pictures will come out?

One thing to note however is that the length of such an extension, while it would add significantly to the current L&B operable track by proportion... wouldn't be terribly long in terms of actual distance. If you operated to Cricket Field Lane...

lynbarn antwortete auf das Thema Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
I am sorry I misunderstood your point regarding the restoration of the various sections of trackbed. Personally, I think it will all depend on where the section is. I think it will require us (as a whole Railway) to have several different...

Some very interesting comments about expected speeds, branded headboards, etc on here. I think generally people are missing that there’s a very good reason this is set up like Polar Express, because it’s targeted at families in the majority. So...
