    Well yes it’s been assessed and the repairs that need undertaking will take longer than the time to the gala. However the question you asked was where it would be repaired and that is not an answer I have.

    Sorry, I assumed you stating it being ruled out of the gala implied some sort of assessment made and presumably conveyed to the owner.

    The newly renovated Mk 1s for sure.

    Will the repairs be carried out on the SVR or an external workshop?

    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...

    I agree that there is absolutely no chance of seeing Mallard run close to 100mph in the future. But as a restoration candidate for more modest mainline and heritage line running, I can see a considerable opportunity in having the loco operational...

    WC bought the Northern Belle, which is an air braked train. Who knows what their strategy was given WC had and has only 1 air braked steam loco in its fleet, which at the time of acquisition was out of traffic awaiting major boiler repairs. The...

    Any steam hauled Belle has a diesel on the back because the stock needs power. If you think 6201 was regularly given its head during its time on the Belle I suggest you look back at old footage. It wasn't exactly 'ex works' for one thing. The...

    The strange part of GC funding 70013 overhaul to include mainline use is what benefit the extra costs bring for a Railway which doesn't currently have a connection to the network. I "assume" 5305LA is still heavily involved with the loco and...
