Very well filmed. Lovely to see unassisted steam up Shap, even with a short train. Reminds me of 1967/68 when my late father took us to Scout Green to film steam and it wasn't unusual to see a local train of about four coaches with a 'Five' at...

I didn't say they were . what I said was it has run previously but with cdl lights plated over . The point is this isn't necessarily a vehicle that has been CDL fitted afresh as some have suggested although I accept work would have been needed to...

That is such a disappointing comment. I don't have a problem with the way they run their business. That's their business. What I find more of a problem is the way their actions impact on other set-ups and their financial stability. Send me a...

No, you definitely have no clue how a risk assessment works.. Unfortunately danger isn't black or white - it comes in every shade in between. A risk assessment attempts to reduce a level of risk, it does not eliminate it or prevent something...

It is no longer productive to discuss how necessary or not CDL may really be for safety. It is required, subject only to temporary exemptions for a few TOCs that have agreed timescales for installing it and are applying agreed alternative risk...

Let's celebrate the fact that Ian Riley's locos have lasted the tour without any major problem. It's a testimony to the care his fleet gets and tbh is more than West Coast deserves given the manner in which they have played it with other parties...

Summits - three Scottish summits in three days. Druimachdar, Tuesday 16th April. A lucky patch of sun by the summit board, although not the same spot as the WJV Anderson 1953 shot of two fives in the snow which may be a little further north...
