    The NYMR has attracted press attention for its oil firing experiment: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/07/heritage-steam-trains-ditch-coal-to-avoid-heatwave-wildfire/ It is interesting to note that currently HMRC does not tax cold...

    Really? i was hoping that you (with your obvious expert knowledge) might explain why that might be the case.

    Who was even thinking of doors on the ends of the locos allowing access to the carriages??? Surely, all they need to do to reverse is open the cab door on the loco and walk, either along a platform or even on the trackside to the door of the...

    No 92134,then? I wonder if 62005 might make a last minute addition, since it looks increasingly unlikely to be venturing to Scotland this season? 563 is an interesting addition, presumably in the absence of a runround loop at Goathland it will...
