    Very warm day down the railway, but a great one as usual, managed trips behind all the visitors, my run from HK to SP behind 1369 was rather juddery, but still sounded good. Rounded the day off watching the double header with 7812 and 6989 depart...

    Yesterday, I made my first visit to the line for the 'Leander Farewell' event. It was also the first time I'd seen 45690, a loco I've been wanting to see for a long time. I wasn't so bothered about 2999 but was pleasantly surprised by it - what a...

    Nice. Is there any more info on the potential denial of access at Shap Wells? I need somewhere to go in a couple of weeks.

    What is the hold up getting 6880 out of Tyseley? Been nearly a month since the launch. Assuming there's tweaks being made before test runs can begin.

    Proposed railtour 29 June over the S&C now looking vanishingly unlikely?

    It appears that the 6880 team have done a really excellent job in producing Betton Grange to what looks like a very high standard, and that is absolutely worthy of congratulation. Certainly I am more than happy to join in that. Well done all....
