Do you really think anyone at 10A would actually care?

Good start, hoping the TBAs turn out to be Haulwen and Rennes, completing the Mountain Ash set with 7754 and Llantarnum Abbey.

Firefly is still progressing quietly I think. Newtons supplied a new inner firebox and girders for it in the last couple of years or so. Like most locos, it will be done when it's done!

I'm no expert on the detail but I think one of the Jacobite Guards worked that route on 'our' GB only last month. (another was onboard too)

Here's a picture of the start of that day during the Sunday morning tea stop at Levisham. With the diner being out on the Saturday night we had to wait while Levisham box was switched in while taking the light engine through to Pickering. There...

It steamed on a candle Peter, for sure, a fireman's dream. A joy on the other side if the footplate too, I passed out for driving on it in fact though my first rostered driving turn after that was actually on 45407, dressed as 45157, because the...

42765 may waddle but it couldn't half steam:). I had a very memorable day on it on a three tripper firing to John Fletcher when it visited all those years ago. Looking at those big cylinders I thought that I might struggle to keep up with Fletch...

26D_M gefällt Ivatt2MTs Beitrag in dem Thema Remaining Ex Barry locomotives?.
Apologies for the thread bump, but Steam Railway had a really good set of pieces in the latest issue covering the current state of the remaining ex-Barry locos. I was quite surprised to learn how close 5539 reportedly is to completion to the...

What I meant really Steve was that the Railway has acquired Black 5s, sometimes through benefaction. Clearly there are more 5s than 8fs and I don't think a complete ex BR 8f has ever actually come on the market. That said, there has been several...

The reason Black 5's are more popular than 8F's is probably quite simply because the Railway has always had them 'on the books' with 44767, 44806, 45212 & 45428 being long term residents over the years. 8F' have only ever visited for galas or...

My initial supposition was that the stock would be dual braked mk1s newly fitted with CDL capable in either mode. Additionally, it doesn't necessarily follow that the staff are common to all WC ops and its over six months since the 2025 Jacobite...

Looks like a freshly painted 47, maybe the one bound for FW tomorrow?

Are you meaning the mk2s which have traditionally been used for the pm Jacobite ie toplights, pv? Some of those had already been newly CDL fitted I think it was reported. That would be logical and then allow Galatea, or whatever its currently...
