  1. ghost liked MellishR's post in the thread Tornado.

    That accusation rings very true for some organisations discussed on here, but it is not clear to me how the way the A1 Trust has been run recently is in anyone's interests. What could the present trustees be getting from it that would motivate...

  3. Jimc liked guycarr360's post in the thread Tornado.

    Just like that eh..... Some of you want to get a reality check, and see how stupid your comments sound. Although the current regime does not seem ideal, and i wish burned bridges could be rebuilt, this apocalyptic reasoning is plain...

    There is a TSR along the Warren between Archcliffe and Martello tunnels due to ground conditions. The whole of the Warren is moving again and is fitted with a monitoring sensors. For those who take notice of such things, it is a rotational slip...

  5. MarkinDurham liked acorb's post in the thread Tornado.

    Here, here.. Finally some words of reason on this thread. When it does return to the mainline, hopefully one or two will pipe down a bit. Whilst I would be the first to admit this latest overhaul has been appalling managed, I still can't wait...

  8. green five liked Rumpole's post in the thread [Jun 7, 2024] Strictly Bulleid 2 7th-9th of June at Swanage Railway (Swanage Railway).

    The key question there is how many of those extras in 2017 were travelling on passes or significant discounts, which weren't available this year. There are several other comparisons where 2024 blows 2017 out of the water.

    For anyone with the patience to read this long tome, my personal view of the weekend. The Prequel Locos had been arriving from the 21st of May when SKP appeared at Swanage having come out of the works the previous day. By June 4 that just left...

    A video of what is undoubtedly one of the highlight events of 2024, with the eight stars of Swanage's gathering of Bulleid Pacifics. Hats off to everyone who put together this event, and made it a weekend to remember! [MEDIA]

  11. Sir Ralph Wedgwood replied to the thread Tornado.

    The decision to completely change strategy at the last minute and ‘quickly’ overhaul the existing boiler rather than fit the new one. However, all very very silent on that which is already 2 years late… and does the second new boiler even exist?...
