SECR 65 vond meeee's post leuk in het topic FR & WHR & WHHR News.
The NRM is visited by 650,000 people every year which is more than double the passenger numbers of the biggest preserved railways. LT is much better being there than at home. It has returned for a brief stay in the past. Getting it out is...

Oswald T Wistle vond torgormaig's post leuk in het topic LE movements, ECS and test runs 2026.
I believe the move was stopped at Holgate after a report of a lineside fire which later proved not to be related to the A3. The loco is now in the prep bay at the NRM while a solution is being sought as to how/when it is to continue on to...

Yes the boiler and tanks are toast but an interesting museum piece . The bogies are an incomplete set of worn out bits.

LMS2968 reageerde op het topic GWR four-cylinder arrangement?.
The Midland (from W.M. Smith (North Eastern) Compounds system worked well and they were, for their size, good and strong machines. I don't have figures for their coal consumption but since these would be comparisons against, say, Claughtons and...

LMS2968 vond Jamessquared's post leuk in het topic GWR four-cylinder arrangement?.
I'm reminded of Adams' trial of the Wordsell-von Borries system (a two cylinder compound) on one of his 4-4-0s. It worked OK, and saved a small amount of coal, but that was more than outweighed by the additional lubrication demands, such that it...

5944 vond ilvaporista's post leuk in het topic Italy: San Sebastian Iron Road.
The dust has settled on the 2026 meeting and all is returning to normal. Furthest guest was from Australia, furthest loco was from Rotterdam. Friday the running went through until 3am. Saturday night I bailed out at midnight but the last loco was...

ilvaporista reageerde op het topic Italy: San Sebastian Iron Road.
I forgot to mention 'The Thing' il coso. This is a representation of a battery mine loco, but with simulated rheostatic control, activated by a faithful reproduction of early electric loco control handles. It was never still long enough to take a...

Biermeister vond Miff's post leuk in het topic Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
All good stuff @pmh_74 I agree 100% I would also say do this hand in hand with B&YV Trust’s new strategy of rebuilding the track (but not operating trains, other than perhaps occasional open days) on the sections they own. This will prove the...

Biermeister vond pmh_74's post leuk in het topic Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
Given that (a) the ENPA previously gave permission to rebuild the L&B through said landowner's land (if they could buy it), and (b) the current thinking seems to be to ignore that bit and stick to the bit they own, which doesn't affect said...

The Dainton Banker vond Steve's post leuk in het topic North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
Along with one other person, I looked after footplate rostering for 10 years and it was an interesting challenge. the NYMR uses HOPS for footplate rostering and it is a good tool for doing this. Footplate crews are categorised on a hierarchy...
