    Seeing picture on Facebook of a potential Fire At the Hammersmith end of the line , unsure as yet but it appears to be a non operational cabin not the operational one
    Hope it's saved and any culprits brought to swift justice. All our thoughts with the volunteers for a hopefully saving of the structure if at all possible

    Having seen said picture and many more, I think we can probably say nothing will be left :-(

    Sadly yes seeing the pics now myself. The lads at the KWVR I visited a
    Few years back were wise enough to have a dry riser sprinkler system put in for good reasons. Time to review everyone's fire risk structures with just cause

    yes biggest threat I think to Preserved Railways , especially rolling stock, is fire, rendering it scrap and beyond repair
