    Junction Road Crossing was on the One Network a couple of weeks ago but disappeared after a couple of days.

    Hi all, I totally agree with what the last 3 writers have said. I have been saying the same thing for years about a certain 2ft gauge rail in the West Country. I do take the heritage aspect of this very seriously, but the reality is that it needs...

    Not to mention that the costs of doing this at standard gauge are much, much, greater than 2ft gauge

    Given the vast expense of building a new loco from scratch, I suspect 'some people' would be a vanishingly small number compared to, for example, those interested in forking out towards the prospect of seeing an A1 or P2 out and about on the main...

    I'm afraid that the "light railway vision" is fabulous, but doesn't pay the rent. The fact is, we need engines that can get 5 mk1's up Tenterden bank. The ethos of getting "whatever is available" was prevalent at the start of preservation, but...

    The whole issue of what steam locomotives to acquire for each railway is full of unexploded mines, while part of me would like to see a few more locos from Java or even Cuba, for that matter, back here in the UK; the realistic side of me asks the...

    He'd hate the Louis Jordan song GI Jive... to this day I can't work out what "...worn out 3As or beat-up 4Fs" refers to - some sort of physical assessment of GI recruits?

    Buses are heavily subsidised but the cost is nowhere near the subsidy provided to any single rail service in the country. Harry has indicated the trial is a franchise commitment so I completely understand why it is happening, however I fully...

    I do not think it is negativity that is being shown, at least as far as the SVR concerned. It is more a sense of realism of how many obstacles would be involved to make this work long term, many of which you mentioned yourself. And of course the...

    Couldn't agree more, the amount of 'free' publicity this has generated for the SVR is worth it alone. I too remain to be convinced that this is financially viable long term, but it is at no financial cost to the SVR atm, will prove or disprove...
