    A King in Cumbria [ATTACH] Although it was running very late, GWR King class No.6024 'King Edward I' puts on a wonderful sight and sound as it works 'The Cumbrian Mountaineer' 1Z24 through Greenholme heading for Shap and onwards to Carlisle

    No idea but when I lived and worked in the area West Ealing to Slough was always a bit of a suicide hotspot. Including one infamous incident when BTP decided to keep a whole train of HeX pax on board for about 3 hours whilst they were interviewed...

    According to a post on wnxx from a GWR driver (and my guess from looking at RTT) seems the ECS was the train involved.

    I agree, great reminder of events past on a line I am unlikely to be well enough to attend anymore. A great video.

    My latest upload from two brilliant days at the railway for the Southern Through The Ages Event if anyone is interested. Many thanks to those who organised such a stella event, your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed ☺️ [MEDIA]

    I see the tour tomorrow still has First Class seats available. Could be due to people expecting the now confirmed diesel presence, or perhaps the view any enthusiast tour will sell out is not correct.

    What insurance do you think would pay the claim? Workmanship is not generally insured. Professional Indemnity IF there was some by the relevant party, and IF the work was negligent. (This, btw, is why doing too much in house is a risk - if you...

    I do not know the answer to your questions, in fact I am unfamiliar with the bridges. However you make the "solutions options" sound so simple. Have you ever tried getting liquidated damages back on a contract that has one. Or getting an...

  13. Gladiator 5076 liked 007's post in the thread Swanage Railway General Discussion.

    I think the general idea is that 30053,120 and 563 will be used fairly evenly in future. 120 and 53 are both very capable of running everything we do, but 563 is harder work on a 5 coach train. Very capable engine but you have to be realistic,...

    I assume the past 3 days have been SLL days. Manston looked very good with its three coach train, a sort of Southampton to Bournemouth stopper (apart from the branch headcode). Also the new shed resident. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
