We all know what went wrong but I think it's worth noting that everything was definitely going very much 'right' from the outset and clearly the crew of Chris Page and Jack Gresty were planning on putting on a great show. Leaving Crewe with 8 on...

Good to see it coming on steadily. I can't wait to see it out and about, not because I particularly admire the little loco but because work can then start in earnest on 488 (or 30583 as the forum's favourite Owl would prefer). Roll on the return...

I have no expectation of a project like this going perfectly to plan. On the contrary, my low expectations mean that I regard the setting of hard deadlines as amplifying the risk to the railway, and undermining the railway's credibility as dates...

So if the NYMR were to attend it sounds like by the end of the evening it might not just be Bridge 42 in need of propping up Jon

The cheapest price is £3,490 for a table for 10. That's £349 each. One heck of an expensive dinner.

If my sources are correct which I’d say they are 80% reliable - 46100 and 34046 fall in to the “very well worn out” catergory. 45231 resided in the workshop in Crewe in October with minor bits removed (I had seen a photo of that), with the King...

The hilarious part was posting on social media portraying that they had achieved something when the reality is they got the cheque book out thinking no one would realise. It sums up the incompetence of the management to a tee. You are right...

That's not hilarious. That's shameful and embarrassing. Constantly begging for money then paying to enter a pointless award ceremony. That's appalling and willy waving of the highest order.

This is hilarious, @60044 these awards don’t have nominations, this is an awards ceremony which is a big scam. No one nominates anyone, the organisation pays for entry. I had one ring me for my business, I told them no thanks, clearly the NYMR...

Very pleased to see this loco on the way back, the mainline has been missing a King - the ultimate GWR design. There was the disappointment of 6023 becoming heritage line only, & never getting to prove its new chimney draughting arrangement -...
