It could be. I’ll check my photo files. Are you saying that the summit board isn’t actually at the summit? Edit : 2010 & 2019 it appears. I can’t find any evidence of my claim of 49 mph. 2010 was 48 over Grayrigg. I’ll check DoG too.

I’ve been over the top at 49 with both Tornado and DoG long before the days of a box on the back. Can’t remember the loads off hand but I can find them

OK, it's messy but I have just registered that this trip is one of four steam trips today on the Big Railway and two of them are running without assistance. Not bad for 2026, I think.

“Let’s be honest” - many of us are sick and tired of WCRC’s nonsense.

It seems to me WC is acting as if a crisis for them should be an emergency for others. What is fundamentally different now to the application for exemption made in early 2024? Logically the only difference could be the concession to a fitment...

Sheff gefällt Beardys Beitrag in dem Thema Jacobite 2026.
Personally I don't see why West Coast should be given an exemption nor do I think they should be given one - They have had a couple of years now to fit CDL in Mk1s but have chosen not to (at least until recently if what you say is correct...

I got an acknowledgement too, a fairly personalised one, which was kind. So I hope my objection will hit the spot (to be added to the case files, it said)

Another month and some more updates. At LMS the midweek team have fitted the two sandboxes and await the 4 filler chutes which are being fabricated back at Toddington. The rear cylinder cladding is nearing completion and then hopefully the LHS...

Plus I see little in the trip, if anything, that could be "cloned" from one of the regular itineraries, unless on the free day it ends up using the existing Jacobite path. So all 8 days likely will need to be planned on the intensive network. The...
