  1. MikeParkin65 liked Jamessquared's post in the thread Tornado.

    That's probably a bit harsh - whatever you think of the loco now, it remains true that its initial construction was highly inspirational for the movement and I am sure has been held up many times an example of "if we as a movement can do that, we...

  4. William Fletcher liked Matt37401's post in the thread 6880 Betton Grange.

    But this is a loco that’s been promised to attend various railways and galas around the country and it’s not exactly more than once. Would it not be a bad idea for a statement from the owning group saying ‘Apologies, there’s still some snagging,...

  7. RailWest liked 35B's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    Streaming would be an excellent idea. So would expanding the meeting to allow both formal business and wider discussion of the Trust, CIC and their plans. That the time allowed for the meeting is so short, and the conduct from the top table so...
