No, for the first time in several years I'm not rostered for GoS - off for an OUCC reunion in Oxford for the weekend. But at least I have had a...
When I sign on in HOPS, I get a statement saying that all four stations have working water sources! EG was out of action I know, but is now...

323 is I think more or less mechanically complete. It is awaiting the return of the boiler from the SVR, after which final assembly should be...
You don't have to understand the logic, you just have to understand the rules ;)...
That's where we might diverge in view. I'm not so sure it is as clear-cut as that, as a reading of the NYMR thread (especially a couple of years...

As originally marshalled, there were two brake vehicles, so we knocked one out but still had a second in the consist. I don’t do carriage...
I suspect a fault in the carriage rather than previous guard having had too many shredded wheat for breakfast! I was on the 9F on Sunday. The...
I can answer (I think) one of those. AIUI the BGZ was owned by a late Bluebell and SRPS stalwart, Jock McKay. When he died, he left it to the SRPS...
I guess the important thing to realise is that “Head of Security” is presumably a function, not a role - in other words, you need to define who it...
The other tanker out in the open; both are confirmed to be running in the goods train tomorrow. AM812 is in a 1940s Air Ministry colour scheme,...
