I've just noticed some very important news that has just been published on the MNLPS website: https://www.clan-line.org.uk/news/clan-line-passes-its-vab-and-boiler-inspection/ It's funny how some loco owners just go about what they do without...

Romsey liked Johnb's post in the thread Jacobite 2024.
There seems to be a lot of misinformation on here about the running of the Jacobite. The reason for normally having the engine facing west is so the passengers can get some proper pictures of it at Fort William, its off the end of the platform at...

As one who sees things from both sides of the camera lens I will say that the only people who know what’s really going and why there is diesel assistance are the support crew or those on the footplate. There are those of us who attend galas for...
