    I have every sympathy with @Big Al’s views, I wouldn’t want to be shoved around in a coffin by a diesel with an asthmatic figurehead up front. However, my solution is simple - I save my money and no longer book any tour that involves WCRC.

    To be clear, I had good company on the train yesterday and up to the return debacle at York things were handled well especially the unseen train movements and servicing at Morpeth from an arrival on the down line to the departure, still...

    Just been thinking about this after the most recent weather forecast. I was considering having a couple days of holiday from work at the end of this week to see the two Weymouth specials (RTC & LSL) on Thursday and to also attend the Watercress...

    With another heatwave forecast for the weekend/early next week at the London end, and little or no rain forecasted for the route I wonder if this will be steam hauled. Be a great shame if not as an anniversary train.

    I do it just to annoy you two who seem to think WCR can do no wrong. ;) And to prove it why not swallow this one. Today's itinerary was good and it seems that despite the weather up north, we may have been operating under fire risk regs. That...

    So here we are taking water at Heaton just 15 miles from our Morpeth drop off point! It was a nice run up to York with Les Ross doing what it does best. At York the ECML made us late away plus a power failure in York Depot that marooned...

    It betrays a very peculiar mindset to suggest somebody goes to the trouble and expense of travelling with the aim of being disappointed in order to criticise the operator! On the broader points about 'performance', it seems to me that the heart...

    Remember that well. With trepidation the two were hooked together on the Thursday before the gala. The 33 hadn’t used the MU control in a long time, and probably neither had the unit. However, needn’t have worried it worked perfectly! The vision...

    That I recall was documented in a slim book about Blue Peter from the early 70s I recollect having, think maybe bought at Dinting Railway Centre. It was a history of the loco and information about the plans for it in preservation, including the...
