I had no idea 44806 had been sold to Peter Best but still kept at the railway. I wonder what the benefactor who bought it for NYMR a number of years ago thought of that?? A bit like selling on a very generous valuable Christmas present you've...

That's a reasonably accurate analysis of how the Railway has carried on with the locos it owns over the years. Work on 34101 effectively stopped once it got to a rolling chassis a good few years ago. It did start on the boiler but after a...

Looks like an interesting loco roster tomorrow with 31466 and 47077 going to Midland Road for tyre turning. 44806 is ending up at Pickering tonight so I guess it forms the 09.20 right through to Whitby. As there's no other Whitby loco available...

I think there's a third leg to this, as the other two are really only facets of senior management (as distinct from task management). Over and above those two, the role of a Chief Exec is to set the tone of the organisation. There's a layer...

Pressure washing the chassis frame as part of a general cleanup ahead of its display at the EVR's Diesel Gala on 7-9 Aug. It then goes into the shed for preparatory work to be undertaken, ahead of eventually matching to the bogies. [ATTACH]

Well, I suspect the answer is probably fairly obvious, even if a little uncomfortable: that over a period of many years, they haven't put sufficient money into loco overhauls to keep up with a rolling programme of maintaining a stable fleet size....

banburysaint a plăcut postul lui ilvaporista în subiectul North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
I could be accused of over simplification but did the passenger figures during oil firing on the ffestiniog suffer due to the fuel used? I don't remember families walking away. If it goes chuff and blows out steam, that is enough for most people...

To be fair I think we all understand the need for diesels to cover when steam fails or dry spells make it dangerous and irresponsible to use steam, particularly through moorland. The reason the NYMR gets a bad rep with them is the excessive use...
