    Nice to see our "other" wagons in operation. I thought the BHR had at least 7 mineral wagons though?

    The timings look like a decent day out from York but a bit of a mission from elsewhere. However 90 minutes at your destination barely gives you time for lunch!

  6. silversteellady vond Trevor Beglin's post leuk in het topic SVR General Discussion.

    Personally feel like Bridgnorth turntable was always a non starter due to the poor positioning with relation to the station of the one at Kidderminster. To use the turntable at Kidderminster after bringing a train in is quite a convoluted...

    The 2016 share issue raised £2.5m towards four objectives, the refreshment room, the car park / access road, refurbishing the station building and the turntable. The first two were completed, but the overspend on the refreshment room meant no...

    To my knowledge there has not been a specific turntable appeal in recent years. Most recently it was included within a later phase of the overall Bridgnorth improvement plan, the first phase was completed a couple of years ago, the next phase the...

    Surprised there isn't a thread for these already. Had a great trip yesterday from Dublin to Dundalk and return behind 171. A inside cylinder 4-4-0 makes a hell of a racket when hitting 70mph with load eight, far more exciting than the majority...

    The Gala went very well and the five visiting "small" engines were very well received. There were Two Windcutter rakes running which was a "First" and makes our efforts so worthwhile. I have seen a couple of pictures on line, but have not yet got...

    I was able to get one picture of the "all grey" rake, which had three brake vans (one was used for the "Brake Van Experience") whilst it was at Loughborough. [ATTACH]

    @Tom02 . Most of the original platform at Swanage was demolished after closure by BR. Only the part near the station building was left intact. The preservationists rebuilt the platform to its original length using concrete blocks, I believe in...
