I must be mixing up those trains but I thought some of the regular Saphos trains had been without DL.

[ATTACH] A blast from the chime whistle---first sight under the occupation bridge and then the steady climb to the summit at Blea Moor a magical few minutes in the northern fells. Taken from behind the fence not on railway land.

Excellent report as ever David. Maybe I'm misremembering but hadn't the Saphos trains gone largely DL free once they were formed of entirely 'fresh air' stock? I guess fire mitigation is the order of the day although we've had a good few...

I blame Thomas Tuchel, I got drawn in to watching a turgid England performance. "A game they should win without really trying" trumpeted some of the pundits, well they certainly didn't appear to be trying and as a result they were in grave...

That I recall was documented in a slim book about Blue Peter from the early 70s I recollect having, think maybe bought at Dinting Railway Centre. It was a history of the loco and information about the plans for it in preservation, including the...

I was discussing the whistle today with a friend and it is believed to be from New Zealand, acquired by Geoff Drury. Today's job at Lazonby: [img] Blue Peter at Lazonby ...and Angerholme: [img] Blue Peter at Angerholme

Quite a few NYMR volunteers work for WCRC although one or two have retired in recent times.

Yet the chances are if someone did "upset him" they are no longer involved with NYMR. Some NYMR crew also work for WC as I understand.

I'm not assuming that at all. I was looking at it purely from the NYMR side, "the Whitby problem", and what options the railway might explore. There used to be a working relationship with WC in the early days of Whitby ops. Perhaps the Railway...

My suggestion was based around the "Whitby problem". The only short term fix to that is hiring certified locos but I fully understand that might not be viable. In which case the "Whitby problem" resolves itself, to the commercial detriment of the...
