Honiton Bank. The place to be. I hope the videos show that this was the crews at both ends of the train letting Clan Line do what it does best. 35 up the bank and 34 through the tunnel.

This is the official notice put out from the project, however I will add a few bits to this and I'm happy to answer. I used to be the sales director before Roger, many of you see me out and about still doing it, but I'm a hgv driver who works...

Apologies for the delay in giving an update on construction but I have been out of the country. So I have attached just a few photographs from the recent Open Day with the Hengist Group at Diamond Engineering in Sheffield. They are hopefully...

Mick45305 liked Flying Phil's post in the thread 34039 Boscastle WC class.
It was great to see the six forgings at Shildon on Monday. On all six, a corner had been cut off so that a steel sample has been tested and a report prepared on the properties of each forging. In the machine shop a large CNC milling machine was...

Not my pic, but would appear to be confirmation that 5110 has been overhauled (with thanks to @Breva for highlighting the link). https://www.reddit.com/r/uktrains/comments/1tiiu0r/spotted_lms_stanier_class_5_being_transported/
