silversteellady gefällt Firelines Beitrag in dem Thema Kent & East Sussex Railway.
Although not blameless, the Austerities don't give the track anything like the grief the USA tanks do. A Schools or an L1 would suffer from large driving wheels with not that much weight over them. A standard 4 tank has proved to be ideal in the...

silversteellady gefällt Wenlocks Beitrag in dem Thema Kent & East Sussex Railway.
I recall, probably 15 yrs ago, an occasion when the A set was hauled by two Terriers. Can't remember why. What I do remember was that after the first trip UP the bank, the driver came in to a classroom where a signalling course was in progress....

silversteellady gefällt Autotanks Beitrag in dem Thema WSR Autumn Steam Gala: 25th - 27th September 2026.
Absolutely gutted to be missing this! I personally much prefer smaller engines on the WSR, so this event is right up my street. The return of 4110, this time in operational condition, will be a really great occasion. It really is a case of right...

We all make mistakes, but that does suggest failure to engage brain.

I've now heard from several sources that a high powered management team are going around the railway listing anything that they consider can be disposed of to raise funds. This includes cranes, strategic spares, such as bogies and wagons,...

Careful, you might inadvertently start the biggest thread this forum's ever seen!

Was trying to think whether that feels clumsy or inspired, but I suspect the former. Presumably the date of the gala has been in the calendar from early in the year, so you'd have thought that the three organisations might have co-ordinated so as...

Sadly I had come to think that might happen a few weeks ago. It's fair to say I think that this year has not gone to plan for NELPG but hopefully the worst is now behind them. Thanks for confirming.

There were posts recently that explained the personal circumstances behind my decision to stand down. Some of my fiercest critics on here expressed their sympathy which was very much appreciated.

There is no NELPG weekend .2392 only loco that would be available. D6700 once featured at a steam gala when 60163 arrived in steam and was duly failed by the shed on arrival .

A week or two ago I thought things were on the up motive power wise with 44806, Repton and Omaha all out. Today it looks like all diesels again (I'm guessing 44806 has failed?). The lack of steam has kept me away this year so far with only the...

I reckon the NELPG event is unlikely to go ahead with only the J27 available.
