    May he rest in peace, I wish his family well in their loss, and hope the impact on the WSR is not too dramatic

    I thoroughly enjoyed my visit on Saturday. I primarily came across to reunite myself with 45110 which I last saw in steam nearly 20 years ago, but enjoyed a run behind 6880 and the 20s too. Fantastic to see the progress at Broadway and the sheds...

    Very good weekend, time keeping was good with only a few minutes drifting on each day soon caught up. A problem with the timetable, the version we down loaded Thursday said the 14.27 (each day) off Toddington to Cheltenham stopped at both...

    I would say that's a lot easier to predict than what might happen at 10A next..;)

    According to the latest issue of Trackside, work is heavily focused on the overhaul of Bittern, with goal being for the loco to return in 2028.

    Those that are interested in such things will be aware of the significance of 45110 and 2028.

    I wouldn’t take too much notice of lineside chatter, it’s usually wrong.

  12. acorb liked GWR4707's post in the thread The 10A Allocation.

    Is 45110 definitely heritage use only, seems very coincidental that the agreed hire term to the GWSR seems to be ending at about the same time they have vac braked stock becoming available again. 44767 is definitely being worked on as there is a...

    Doesn't appear to have been fitted with any of the electronics necessary at present, that doesn’t mean it can't have them fitted in the future though.

    I think we need to be positive, this time last year West Coast hadn't fitted any CDL and were instead up for a fight in court. They appear to have completed fitment to at least 12 vehicles since.

    Yep, I think you are both right too - wishful thinking on my behalf!
