The whole point of these events is for the publisher to sell seats at the awards dinner. The "basic" package is for a table for 10 at £3490, which gets the lucky attendee the following: Pre-dinner drinks reception for all guests Table of 10...

If they win, I'm sure it will make a nice two-page spread in the magazine noting the triumph! Awards like that seem to spring from a perceived lack of self-worth you get in some communications teams, as if they constantly need to validate that...

That's not "hilarious"; I'm wavering between 'infuriating' and 'unbearably sad'. Because the line really is in a bad corner, and, as you observe, this is a pretty telling insight into who's minding the store. Noel

This is hilarious, @60044 these awards don’t have nominations, this is an awards ceremony which is a big scam. No one nominates anyone, the organisation pays for entry. I had one ring me for my business, I told them no thanks, clearly the NYMR...

On a visit to the T&DR a few years ago I was riding behind the Manor. It was a poor weather day and the loco slipped continuously on the climb to Churston and we lost a good bit of time. When we arrived at Kigswear I spoke to the fireman and...

Saw a photo of 7827 out and about on Friday so decided very last minute to travel down yesterday (Saturday). Due to two late running trains I got to Paignton just as the 1230 service was about to leave, so went to Sands Road LC and saw 7827...

Nope. Even Network Rail has to go through all that.

jnc liked Jamessquared's post in the thread SVR General Discussion.
Visited the SVR on Wednesday for the first time in many years. Four trains were out: the black pannier 7714 on a rake of 7 Mark 1s; a class 45 on the Gresley set; 813 / 1450 on a GWR set (with one LMS carriage in the rake) all running full line;...

The cost of bringing in three or four Victorian carriages by lorry would be considerable, quite apart from the question of who has such carriages available for loan. I suspect the numbers just don't stack up for a short-term event. The whole...

Never heard of it in all my 70 years, and I’ve worked my share of them in the past.

BRIDGE 42 UPDATE We are currently repairing Bridge 42, which sits between the tunnel and Grosmont station. Unfortunately, the work required to resume services over the bridge will not be completed until May. As a result, at the start of the 2026...
