Having not been for years, I thought I’d venture (with some trepidation, given the general tone of this thread!) to the NYMR today. First, a very big caveat - I am as happy with a Black Five at the head of the train as I am with a 37, but I...

We could always send the CEO to St Micheals Mount, like the one from the Valley did, only to leave a few weeks later. Even better a friend on the trust broad has just told me 3 of the long term members (John Bruce, John Bailey and Chairman Jerry...

Top and tail 37s on the main train and restricted use 31466 with 29 on the moorlander Makes you wonder if a full timetable could have been operated currently due to current loco availability

Hopefully just a glitch but the website landing currently shows normal services resuming in march on the service info at the top!

You may be right, but I find it very sad that both the LNERCA and now, increasingly, NELPG are finding that their best interests lie away from the NYMR. It really amplifies the fact that the NYMR has lost sight of its roots as a heritage...

I doubt the NYMR would have much work for the P3 this year either. They've got a much more limited service than historically and stretched finances. I suspect they wouldn't be unhappy at losing this one off the hire bill for another year. NELPG...

Slightly ironically the P3 would've been perfect for the first 3 months of the NYMR's services as it turned out. Likewise the teak set could've been used. Oh well.

Can only echo what others have dais, spent Friday and yesterday at the gala and was a superb experience. Absolutely adore no. 20, she's enough to melt my cold pre-grouping heart. Some photos from the event, more can be found at...
