It gets worse the more you think about it, even using guesstimates, rough figures and trying to extrapolate from the accounts. I can't imagine lighting up a 9F is going to be cheap with current coal prices, and an extra loco is lit up solely for...

When you read the numbers you do really get the feeling that the powers that be for this line are not in touch with reality. To repeat myself (and others) somewhat... Bridge 42 was known about long before the stoppage yet nothing was done in...

Technically, only No. 46512 (assuming you're referring to the three engines currently in service) is in ownership of the railway. Even then, @Foxontour would be better to ask if it's the Company or the Trust that owns it, as I cannot recall that...

It'll help future proof the line as well. Assuming the Grantown extension happens in the next few years, having 5 "big" locos available will certainly help with the extra mileages involved. So it's only 8 miles per round trip, but it'll soon add...
