We're quite lucky in that we haven't any cables between High Rocks and Groombridge that need to go over the bridge. It is rather a plain structure that'll now be gradually paid off over two years and fade into memory as a significant project...

On the other hand, any idiot can deliver low quality product with unlimited budget and time. Which won’t be the case here. And even the world’s greatest project manager might exclaim ‘unachievable’ if their client has unrealistic expectations...

The walkway can often be arranged to contain the cable routes to avoid damage. Cheers, Neil

In fairness to NYMR, where individuals holding roles are concerned, “it can’t be done” isn't always that different from “I can’t do it”.

That's certainly one plausible interpretation of their 'it can't be done' (although I have to wonder if they actually said 'I can't do it', and that was mis-reported as 'it can't be done'). I still wish more had been said - and reported - on why...

Its a little while ago now but the figures given out were approx £250k required for the 'propping' phase, with £550k for the main repairs. Though those were estimates issued back at the start of March.

From my time with the construction industry this level of project requires a multi-discipline input. Structural engineers would be engaged to determine the extent of the works required and to provide an engineering solution that may , as in this...

A good feedback On the matter of labelling locomotives and carriage diagrams, it is not friendly to the average punter as the codification of workings, is only useful to those in 'the know'. It needs to be shown in Plain English

That's a shame as it's a very interesting vehicle, though I do wonder if it is suitable for the NYMR. Geographically speaking it's very much in keeping but visitors to the line mostly come to enjoy steam and expect it to be provided. It also...

To be honest I thought it wasn't due to run until the 15th anyway. Or maybe they have just issued so many timetables nobody knows what's supposed to be running anymore...

It’s a walkway not a platform. It’s now a requirement for new bridges to have one. We couldn’t afford a double track bridge like the original, nor would there be an operational need for one.

We left the lead 37 at Goathland presumably to help work the diner back. No issue with the loco failure, as I say I accept these things happen, totally understandable.To leave a packed train standing for 25 minutes without a single person...
