Another option is the one used on a couple of wagons at the Bluebell, which is to use a wagon sheet. The wagon itself contains a rough frame knocked up from scrap timber, which has the dual role of simulating the shape of a load, and also...

It's a good solution for a 'less than lovely' wagon though, and most railways can find one or two of those...

The listing will just mean that you have to maintain it properly using traditional materials and methods, and in consultation with whoever the local authorities have appointed to look after such heritage matters. My brother's house is grade 2...

And, however much I disagree with their attitude and approach, that needs to be respected. I wish you all the best with this

Yes indeed - we already have a designated maximum of 12 operating days each year. For the rest - we are clear that any quibbles from us and we will get a lot more delay. Not blaming East Suffolk Council - they are doing their very best for us...

Six and a bit people were in action today and B 560676 is virtually complete once the "W" iron is riveted in place. So attention has turned to B590067 which needs a new floor and will also get a new end to replace the badly buckled and...

I have been following the progress of 4253 with interest for several years. It's a superb record of the almost unimaginable amount of time, resources, effort, money, successes and setbacks it takes to restore an ex-Barry hulk to working order....

It isn't necessarily in perpetuity; if the railway wished to extend further, in future, they could wrap up a variation of conditions in a subsequent application. Noise and emissions concerns I can understand (even if my personal experience is...

Good news... I've never heard of a railway having a type of traction stipulated as a planning condition before, though. Can they do that? I mean, you're a small organisation, it probably isn't worth arguing about that point... but if you ever...

Don't shoot me if I'm wrong, but I think that shed may actually have gone up in the 90s! Although IIRC it took a few years to put any doors on it. Wasn't the once-resident class 56 diesel kept in there at one point? Still, good to see a steam...
