    I personally like it when railways have a few locos facing the other way to most of the fleet it gives chances for different shots that you'd usually not get. Sticking with Bluebell. It's a shame that a shot like this one is only possible with...

    I must admit, I was a bit disappointed to read of the plans to turn 80151 to face north. Facing south does offer opportunities away from the more popular spots for north facing engines. However, a trawl through my photos made me realise that...

    Propping the bridge and the planning permission are two different things. Because the bridge is a listed structure the proposed repairs require listed building approval (planning permission). Propping the bridge does not affect the structure and...

  7. banburysaint liked RichardSalmon's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

    It was only at the weekend that I heard about the plan to turn 80151 to face North. My assumption is that it's for a loco line-up (like last year's with the four new-builds, at the North end of Horsted Keynes) at Giants. Doing it when there's a...

    Network Rail allowed the AVR to takeover a carriage of the inspiration train during its stay at Bristol Temple Meads this weekend. It was extremely busy yesterday and we had great fun engaging with visitors, encouraging them to visit the AVR or...
