Paul42 gefällt Steves Beitrag in dem Thema 1994 Blue Peter incident.
I’ve previously recounted on The forum the events on the footplate of 60532 on that day, as told to me by the NELPG rep on the footplate. He was sat on the fireman’s seat when it happened. Unfortunately, the driver had not put the catch in on...

The spare pannier boiler is in bridgnorth yard as it has been since it came off 7714. I don't think any work has been undertaken on it. On a separate note, 4150 hauled it's first passenger train in preservation today, double heading with 7714.

I'm afraid that the "light railway vision" is fabulous, but doesn't pay the rent. The fact is, we need engines that can get 5 mk1's up Tenterden bank. The ethos of getting "whatever is available" was prevalent at the start of preservation, but...

Some pictures of Monday (7/7/26) afternoon's outing along the shores of Lake Maggiore between Luino (Italy) and Cadenzzo (Switzerland) with 625.116. The running was sprightly, the scenery spectacular but off train photography was non-existant...

A KESR preservation history question: [ATTACH] I'm scanning my photographs from the early days of the K&ESR, and the caption to this one says: BSK S 34626 cut down to underframe for GNR body. This was on 15.09.1977. The body in question, in...

We travelled yesterday on the Midland Pullman to Oban. 0500 off Durham, and 2344 back (17 earlier than booked!). The Train - As ever with LSL it was immaculate and presented to the highest standard. We’d purchased my mum some flowers for her...

Earlier this week the elegant Italian 2-6-0 tender locomotive steamed from Luino, Italy along the scenic banks of Lago Maggiore across the border to Cadenazzo, Switzerland. This former FS engine was built in 1922 in Genoa by Ansaldo and is...
