    Presume there's a seperate smaller delivery to New Bridge at present? As you say the mechanical handling is not straightforward and too costly to set up even if it yields long term savings.

    Whilst possible, it would be a nightmare job . It would have to be tpped on a concrete apron, loaded into a suitable wagon and tripped to Grosmont where it would have to be unloaded. How, would be an interesting converation. I've unloaded 16...

    Presumably getting a cheaper artic delivery to New Bridge (?) and tripping it to Grosmont by the handily adjacent railway isn't cost effective, even if it saves 15% per delivery?

    No it isn't possible to disclaim liability for a business decision made to suit operational convenience rather than the failure/fire risk sort of "force majeur". It isnt "every endeavour" really, is it? Also who is this "our train suppliers"...

    Inside cylinder GWR locos tend not to have clearance issues - the problem is with those with outside cylinders. On the S&DJR the inside cylinder locos (Pannier tanks and the likes of the 22xx 0-6-0s) were fine but not the outside cylindered tanks...

    Enthusiasts pulled by a Tractor beam Peter? [emoji846] I assume this is a short term measure pending the expected imminent resurrection of mk1s?

    Correct on both counts Diesel (Class 37)haulage for the afternoon train. All passengers are being e-mailed about this. Interesting to see if any Class 37 fans come north for what could be termed West Highland Heritage traction Peter
