Yes, I think the caveat should be dragged out of the T&Cs and given prominence.

Of course NR carries overall responsibility for the integrity of the network and will assume worst case scenario. What needs to be averted is a situation where episodes like the one under discussion make the 'worst case senario' a fixture of the...

Totally agree, the responsibility for whether and how a steam loco is used on the mainline rests with the operator. They have the duty to assure "fitness to run" afterall. If its reasonably forseeable the loco poses a significant ignition risk...

I think having a fire risk rating for locos is just adding another layer of unwanted complexity to the problems of matching loco to duty. “Our planned loco 12 weeks ago when we put the request in was gauged as restriction 1, fire risk group 3....

Is it reasonable to ask too, in the interests of 'improvement, what responsibilities does the operator have beyond simply waiting until a ban is imposed by NR? Being cognisant of the potential risks posed by "their" traction, is there no thought...

In some ways that rather highlights a lack of foresight, the direction of travel in terms of temperature has been very well documented for a while now. Admittedly the weather over the last few years has perhaps made the resulting impacts more...

Nice to see the quality of reporting doesn't seem to improve even on leaving SR, albeit looking on the bright side with it being in the Telegraph I'm surprised blame wasn't laid at the door of asylum seekers or Keir Starmer.... :rolleyes:

It comes across a bit sloppy to me. For example (and ignoring the points raised by others): An insider suggested that the cost of the delays would be almost £300,000, with the taxpayer picking up the vast majority of that. OK, fair enough. But...
