    The Royal Duchy 1st May with King Edward I

    If true this is a great pity. The NYMR is a very testing railway and it would have been very interesting to see what the King could have shown...

    I believe that the A1 Trust tried this sort of thing and ended up with Joe public all over the railway and in the way of HST's and things. Maybe...

    Barry Scrapyard 6869 Resolven Grange?

    Shame really. All they have done in those 18 months is to put a Scot back on the main line, overhaul an 8F and nearly finish a Black 5.
