    Patience! Track laying is generally one week per month, not every week. You ask when our wonderful K&ESR volunteer P Way team will run out of trackbed - the construction programme anticipates we run out of trackbed on which to lay any more track...

    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...

    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...

    First of all, an appeal: Fondo Ambiente Italiano stages this poll for the most beloved places. We would like to have the Primolano Railway Museum and his shed in the top 100, to gain more visibility. Please vote. It is free of charge, it just...
