    Are you sure? I know of the Heritage Building fund, to help with the upkeep of existing KESR buildings, but my understanding was that the new builds at Robertsbridge are being funded by the RVR....

    If you go on the timetable page, and go down to the boxes, it does say which is steam and which is diesel....

    The Mogul is NOT out this weekend, as it's Dwarves of Steam. Having looked at the working timetable, even the diner engine is an Austerity. I have contacted the marketing team to advise them of the error. Please also note that no public trains...

  7. Fireline liked John Petley's post in the thread Kent & East Sussex Railway.

    Thank you for providing a definitive answer on why the K&ESR doesn't publish a loco roster. I guess it's not the answer some of on here would like, but perfectly understandable given that the volunteers and staff do not want to be hassled by...

    I take your points, and I myself only know why our loco roster disappeared because I asked the question, on not being able to find it myself. I was informed, by one of our senior managers, that the only reason that the roster had been removed was...

  10. Fireline replied to the thread Kent & East Sussex Railway.

    You're missing the point. A decision was taken, at management level, not to provide the daily loco roster directly due to the actions of certain "enthusiasts" on finding that motive power had been substituted at short notice. We don't treat it...

    I suspect they would, if they themselves knew. Being volunteers, they're not always there, and won't always know. And good for you. So sorry that we don't provide a service that you clearly believe is essential, and should be mandatory.

    I am not outraged by the suggestion. Can you please point me to where I have said that I am? Or are you just trying to be offensive?

    Maintained by one or two volunteers, who only look at it when they have the chance. Ask on the main KESR one.

    Depends which KESR site you asked on. Most are unofficial, and run by one man with issues....
