    The SVR will be without an active pannier of any type for a few years. The first returnee will most likely be 1501 but it's overhaul has not yet started in earnest.

    Presumably the SVR will be without an active 57xx pannier then for a while unless there is a plan to do a quick turn around on 7714?

    My efforts from yesterday, the first at Purton isn't anything special but the position of the sun is a bit awkward south of Kemble> the second is approaching Cheltenham and the last two are on the climb to Chipping Campden Tunnel at Mickleton....

    I admire your optimism. 45428 has been in traffic for more than 8 years. Repair or start the overhaul now? Is 92134 guaranteed to return after its visits to Bluebell and Chinnor? 926 seems to spend 6 months in traffic, 6 months out. I wouldn't...

    The info board in the NELPG shed says the Q6 has been pulled for overhaul due to amount of boiler issues found. 2 years early and estimated £500k required.

    My brother and I did this earlier this year and I can heartily endorse the above. An absolutely unforgettable day. In my case, made even more memorable by winning one of the raffle prizes drawn at the top of the Oakamoor branch; a cab ride in...
