Assuming, of course, that whoever owns it wants/is prepared to sell!

From what I have thread, this sounds like an "L&BR arrangement" for a land-acquisition company buying up the trackbed, whilst another company operates the line they've already got - except that possibly the two companies have to reach an...

Maybe the NNR with their WD? For my own part, though, I think that Repton is a perfectly OK engine for the NYMR under most conditions and there's no need to do a swap! Just judge the days when it is used a bit more carefully, or at least don't...

I think this comment really goes to show that there must be something reasonably special about the NYMR for its supporters to spend large amounts to support it. At one time or another it seems to have an unerring ability to upset them, though,...

I was thinking of those, but didn't know what had become of them. As for Hartland, @Steve has told that there are fears the family that own it will look to sell once is is completed - but I can't see the NYMR being in a position to buy it, so...

To be fair, it's only recently that having an oil-fired loco has been seriously considered at all, as fire risk periods have become more prevalent and longer-lasting and to a certain degree virtually every other Whitby service could be hauled by...

I don't think there's a problem with Repton or it's reliability normally, normally when it struggles is when rail conditions are poor, and even Black 5s have been known to slip to a stand on occasion under such conditions. I don't believe it is...

Once part of Collection X the restoration of MNR No.16 (later IMR F37) approaches completion and it was out for a test run yesterday evening. M.N.Ry. No.16 was built in 1899 by Hurst-Nelson of Motherwell and is one of only two bogie carriages...

But hard to excuse when you have so many people working in marketing, and that they “won” an “award”

The unfortunate fact is that you don't need to.

We’re into fantasy land now. Let’s stick to the P2 on this thread.

....along with increased fire risk, presumably - less of a problem just to New Bridge, though. Is the S160 available for traffic now?

That's a shame, but as I pointed out, it's not the overall cost of doing 133 but the difference in cost between restoring it and the worst of the Garratts - and the possible difference in running costs thereafter ~ or, are there any NG15sstill...

I wonder if, at some point in the future, it will be seen as more cost-effective to restore the second example, rather than overhaul one of the Garratts? There's a lot less bits to maintain, and given the cost of tyres, for example, the savings...
