    ScotRail has been operating discounted fares on the Mallaig line during the summer I read somewhere, which has not gone down well with the Jacobite operator. The 156 units are of course fresh air stock with big windows ......

    I would suggest when a very small number of people are getting ridiculously rich; while normal folk worry about turning on the cooker or boiler, when rivers are environmentally dead, when 25% of all drinking water is lost in leaks and a country...

    No, I understand that, just there's no pleasing everyone, clearly.

    It's a few years since we last went to Glenfinnan and it was pretty bad then. It's the counterpoint to the "outcry" from local businesses when the Jacobite wasn't running earlier in the season though.

  6. 26D_M gefällt MuzTrems Beitrag in dem Thema 6024 King Edward 1.

    With its cut-down boiler mountings and slimline cylinders, 6024's appearance is no longer 'authentic' for any part of its working life. So, arguably, it really doesn't matter what colour they paint it now...

    Something which really belongs in the "Transparency .....etc" thread but this sort of discussion has been going on for well over a decade. When some sensible folk said exactly as you have, Alan, others piled in with "so sue RTC". It's as if RTC...

    That is very poor from RTC - they should be aware the chances of that being steam hauled are practically non existent. How about accept reality and hire a pair 20s or 37s and try and make something of a situation nobody can do anything about?...

    Received the following in an e-mail from RTC today: [ATTACH] I'd say this sails very close to the edge of 'mis-selling' given that the chances of steam haulage are, barring a major monsoon, slim to nil, and the vintage trams haven't been running...

    If you look at Belmond's extensive programme of 2026 British Pullman trips you will see that, as normal, the steam ones with Clan Line are in a minority. However, they have planned for steam to operate primarily in the early and late season with...
