On the day I acquired my first SLR camera (Zenit B for anyone interested) first stop was Dinting to expose a roll of colour film, how extravagant for a mere schoolboy. I must have made a dozen visits over several years, 30925 was present for a...

There are mutterings that the field on the west side of the line just South of Horsted Keynes at Station Approach (New Road Bridge I think it's officially called?) is no longer accessible. This was opposite to the side with the public footpath...

2004 was the year the main line return plans fell apart. The awarding body, RESCO, lost all the existing paperwork so there were no grandfather rights left over from the 1996-98 running. We would basically have started again with fresh surveys...

My experience of S15’s is limited to 825/841 but I have nothing but admiration for them. They may not have the ease of prep and comforts of the BR Standards but they are strong, sure footed and fantastic steamers.

I tend to keep my emails fairly formal so that they're clear and easy for everyone to understand. The Instagram and TikTok content is much closer to how I am as a person day-to-day. It's definitely not an act! In our accounts, turnover is split...

From what I understand (not being an accountant!), 'Gross profit' is just income less the immediate cost of the things sold (so in a railway's case I guess coal/Diesel, stock for the catering, etc). 'Operating Profit' is then this less the...

Hello everyone, It has been a while since the last finance update, and the hot summer has impacted every heritage railway and tourist attraction that I have spoken to. So, how are we performing? So far this year, we have carried 21,717...
