Wondering if its to be more mk2s, whether some of the ex Green Train/Steam Dreams rake have had CDL fitted. They were vac braked of course so that might permit for the K1 to head up there as son as its ready. Or they could have converted the vac...

26D_M liked 45698Mars's post in the thread Jacobite 2026.
A nice thought but it doesn't really make sense. Note too that the WCR Jacobite website advertises "heritage Mk2 coaches". If I had a nice shiny rake of CDL fitted Mk1's then why would I send it to work with air brake fitted locos in Scotland...

26D_M liked Jamessquared's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
So indulge an off-the-wall thought. I was thinking about the NYMR, and in particular the Whitby situation, which in many ways seems to be a 6 mile tail wagging an 18 mile dog. It struck me that from a passenger perspective, the Whitby operation...

Yes, that was the tightest year - 73082, 80151, 541, 65 all year; 263 for the beginning of the year and 6989 from June. I guess technically there was a period between March and June when only four steam locos were available. The position has...
