I get this but will spare myself the 22 minutes of YouTube. However, that then puts the focus sharply onto the quality of stakeholder engagement - the impact of the very welcome YouTube video is undermined by the lack of substance in what was...

I have it in good authority that the main reason for five day running for the last two years is to give the railway a better chance of getting through the season by reducing the wear and tear on track and infrastructure and give the MPD a chance...

Wow! I have a day out and about and I come back to over 30 posts. you keep trotting out the 'what's matters is generating surplus' line and ignoring everything else associated with it. Did the CEO learn it from you or did you learn it from her?...

The contributions of both the outgoing Trust Chairman and the PLC Director were woeful and symtomatic of the incompetence and complacency which has brought the line to it's knees. The incoming Chair of Trustees was slightly more hopeful though I...

Yes, unforgettable! Banging and crashing is clearly to be avoided with expensive and now quite rare rolling stock. The days when I remember seeing wagons with OMJ chalked on them are long gone! I think the GCR is an excellent railway despite my...

Your post @Enterprise takes me back in an instant and prompts me to digress somewhat. I lived as a child about a mile from the ecml and sometimes weather dependant, used to identify the diesels (Deltic and 40s were most obvious) passing whilst...

Enterprise makes a good point but the GCR has operated much longer freight trains for special occasions. The 50 wagon 50th Anniversary event in 2023 being the most recent. In regular traffic, it operates 12/14 wagons plus two brakes (equals six...

A gloriously historical re-enacted scene, the effect of which is slightly spoiled by the guard of the train on the left...! :confused:

As a semi-regular videographer and frequent sound designer/editor, in your bemusement you are overloooking one key issue. Many promo videos for railway preservation are shot outdoors. Ever watched a video with wind noise all over it?...

It is very interesting to note that, 12 hours from posting the above picture, it has had the biggest number of "Likes" on this thread for over a year! Obviously the image of mineral wagons hauled by steam locomotives, passing each other, has...

I agree that all avenues should be explored. I wasn’t commenting on the competence or activity of individuals, just reflecting that the market has definitely shifted where coach parties are concerned. I think it is important to be tolerant of...

A slight improvement on last year I suppose - October half term week last year, Flying Scotsman hauling prebooked trains, non Flying Scotsman services were only 5 coaches long and completley packed. Oh and no services running on the Thursday +...
