    Loco was suffering from priming second trip last week, resulting in her stalling at Bridge 5 and having to set back to the level to be able to build her speed up again. 97 is actually the stronger of the pair, we generally rate her as being able...

    Thanks for the insight into the 'personalities' of 5197 and 6046 - very interesting to note and it will add to the appreciation when next travelling behind or filming these magnificent locos. Well done to all involved in the railway's...

    I know a chap who considered buying a Pacer body to keep poultry in, but when he saw the inside decided the hens would stop laying.

    Maybe it's just me but it seems a waste of time to be talking about grinding axes whilst at the same time throwing darts at legitimate postings. I have no problem with accepting that there is both good and bad policies emanating from WCR and I...

    No, in their own words they've "decided to fit CDL", any "agreement" is to comply with the law, which is kind of a prerequisite for running a business in a regulated sector of industry ....

    Last week you were hailing the "agreement" with ORR, which WC was claiming to have been struck. There was no agreement and ORR had to say so. WC has undoubtedly done great things with mainline steam but that is in the past and doesn't make ORR...

  13. Bluenosejohn a plăcut postul lui 26D_M în subiectul Jacobite 2026.

    Is it incorrect to say that in 2018, when renewing the R5 exemption, ORR told WC that it would be the final exemption issued, for a period of five years? In March 2023, when that exemption period ended WC sought its renewal and was declined by...

    That's what WCR claim. I'm not sure close partnership would be a phrase used by the ORR where WCR are concerned.

    No, what you can see is the jig built to mimic the rear section of the frames that was constructed especially to allow more accurate fabrication of the whole cab, particularly the graceful curved section that you can see. I hope the photo below...
