    Couldn't agree more. Big shout out to the stewards in coach F, made us welcome from the minute we got on and kept us updated throughout on everything that was happening, with good humour and a smile. Some nice little touches, such as providing a...

    I agree wholeheartedly. I've put a goodly five-digit sum into 2007 and I really would like to see some real progress with it now - and similarly, the board of the A1SLT (of which I can no longer find a listing of?) have some explaining to do....

    I'm not so sure. Mark Allatt struck me as very much an organiser, communicator and fund-raiser - but not an engineering manager. If you look at his website here those are the strengths he plays up to. Hopefully, the A1SLT will learn from this...

  9. 46223 liked Michael Whitehouse's post in the thread Vintage Trains 2024.

    7029 was safely back on shed by 1am, catering unloaded, rubbish cleared and team debriefed. It was a pleasure to be able to do virtually no management on 1Z48, simply because it was unnecessary. The enlarged team including FGW, Bristol and Laira...

  13. Sheff liked Johnb's post in the thread Tornado.

    I did find it a bit odd that they should decide to divert resources to build a third boiler when the first one was and is still relatively new and they were involved in building a second locomotive. Did it mean that the first one was found to...
