No. There will be a passing loop closer to Robertsbridge.

Years ago, the tracks at the ferry terminal extended further than they did in recent years, from Loch Promenade in to what is now a car park. This extension was, IIRC, only used to terminate the working and run-round the horse, i.e. always empty...

There are a number of misconceptions here: 1. That steaming fees cover overhaul costs - it is very clear that they do not, and never have; mainline or preserved. 2. That voluntary donations are inappropriate to cover overhauls - they are...

All steam hauled trains are followed through Newtondale to summit by a fire watch team in a road vehicle with equipment to put out any fire that starts before it becomes significant. Fire outside this part of the line are historically quite...

Darlington has a Premier Inn close to the station, a nice town centre and had some decent pubs nearby when I stayed there some years ago. For those who do not want a marathon day a good option .

And in that story we have some of the difficulty - especially whether the funds provided are shares, or donations, and in what proportions.

Lots... Depends which but of normal you want back. For fire-risk reduction purposes in the short term, a week of steady drizzle would probably be best, as it gets all the dry dead stuff damp, which is the short-term problem. For a longer-term...
