    I left my overnight stop hotel at Graaff Reinet at 04.15 on a very cold winter's morning and drove through snow showers as I went over the Lootsberg Pass. Hoping the weather front wasn't going to spoil the Karoo sunrise where I planned to arrive...

    He wouldn’t give it the time of day unless they were pots of cash in it for himself.

    I do hope you didn’t think I was taking this in any way seriously? It will never happen.

    ….. but where’s the necessary brake force coming from, without a trailing load that would snooker the speed?

    The "Urban Viaduct" I think is effectively going to be three parts. From the two track canal bridge, there will be approx 60m of embankment then a small single track bridge next to the Combined Sewer Outflow to allow maintenance vehicle access....

    The cheapest GAOT around Kent with steam haulage is £590 per person. The Worcester trip would be two meals instead of one and greater mileage, so if you feel very rich it's a good deal. Cheers, Neil

    I have to agree that there isn’t much of an incentive for someone on a day rover ticket to get off at any station in between Whitby and Pickering other than Grosmont which has a very generous access to loco sheds etc. The line (in my short...

    There's more to Goathland than Heartbeat! There's the walk down to the Mallyan Spout, there's the roman road, there's the (alleged!) history of witchcraft in the area, there's the winding house for the incline and the walk down the rail trail to...

    Indeed it is a re-run of that debate. But my point is not to reopen Whitby good/bad, but to highlight that for 17 miles of infrastructure with associated fixed costs, driving the maximum cash inflow is key. And with very limited capacity to...
