As regards 82045. It's never good form to give a completion date, as there are so many variables and unknowns. She will be ready when she is ready. It is possible however to say that when the great day eventually arrives, there are already plans...

For those interested in the track relaying, a new post has been released by the RVR on their blogspot site detailing what we got upto last week. Wednesday was especially hot and very uncomfortable but made all the more easier by working with a...

I understand that work on the North Bridge Street Level Crossing will commence on 27th July. I have seen a copy of a letter from the contractor [Road Ways] to local residents.

You could try the car park that is clearly marked on their 'How to Find Us' page https://www.northdorsetrailway.co.uk/how-to-find-us.php

Interesting responses to my post about diesel not being the same turn off that it was. It seems to have sparked some debate. My observation though was rooted in watching the daily ticket sales of a railway and access to 20 years of detailed...

jnc vond Steve's post leuk in het topic North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
The NYMR is on a knife edge with regard to motive power at the moment. I'm told that 37688 has failed and it looks like 44806 is, apparently, the sole 'Whitby' loco and will have to shuttle back and forth between Grosmont and Whitby. That...

Not being funny but is it? I feel like steam has been on a knife edge since whenever they first set fire to a National Park. Steam on preserved railways has been the default expectation since the start but isn't always practical. But how you...

jnc vond Gladiator 5076's post leuk in het topic North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
37's and 47's may still be on use on the mainline but unless you are in "charter country" I suspect very few ever see one. 60's livery I suspect would not appeal to a lot of diesel fans, so if you also want to tap that market the two do not sit...

Steam sells. It's a vital USP of the NYMR. I've seen people turn away when they find out it's not Steam haulage. The present timetable is littered with Ds and ds, how does that look? The diesels themselves are class 37s and a 47, two in BR...

jnc vond SECR 65's post leuk in het topic North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
This conversation about steam vs diesel has reminded me of two things (not particularly linked or related to each other): On that NYMR TV programme a fair while back, one of the episodes (or it might even be in the intro) has a section of...

A very significant share of the people who are buying seats on heritage lines are 'ordinary people' (i.e. 'not us'). What do they think? I'm not sure, but I have to think that, for an ordinary person, steam trains are a big part of the picture of...

If you're over for a day trip, yes probably, but if you're in the area on holiday for a week like we are in just over a week's time. We intend to travel as a family, but if it's a diesel at the front, we'll be walking away and doing something...
