    I will let someone in the know from the railway answer that but once a week for a few weeks in the summer on a unit that I understood would have just sat in Jersey Sidings all day does not even pass @acorb couple of services a day on high days...

    I also think a few things need to be set out here. I don't believe anybody here has said it outright cannot happen. Like any proposal, the overall idea likely can be achieved. In fact, there is a scenario of mainline TOC operating a service...

  4. Gladiator 5076 erstellte einen Anhang in dem Thema Swanage Railway Diesel Gala 08 - 10 May 2026.

    I did not get out much for the gala as I did not feel great over the weekend and the little I did has taken me until today to recover. So just a few images from Friday and Saturday that involved little walking, but does include a rare image of...

    It may well appeal to a number of railways as a way to minimise risk as costs to continue to grow upwards it seems for loco movements and coal. It would really only be like a glorified Fox & Edwards event. Talking of movement costs everything...

    Maybe some of the possible realities need to be thought about. We often talk about such schemes as some TOC (GBR I suppose) running over a heritage line. With all the issues we have with he likes of the DfT, ORR, NR, TOC's and the unions how...

    More than one though. To provide a meaningful service, even just peak hours Monday - Friday, each box will require two staff per day due to the length of day. In which case are they employed part-time just as signallers or full-time, and do they...
