    Yes, from carting 5 Mark 1s of fresh air around, they're really getting custom now, and I applaud them for it

  2. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui richards în subiectul Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.

    Embsay has always been a railway running industrial tank engines with (mainly) mark 1 carriages. As a result, the mainstream steam enthusiasts tend to give it a miss. What they've achieved is amazing with what they've got, and they should be...

  3. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Romsey în subiectul WCME & CME 2026.

    As Acorb says, lineside access is very restricted these days. Nearly all lineside vegetation clearance is done in subsidiary worksites in a possession for something more technical. ( Unless it's green zone working over 2 or 3 meters back from the...

  4. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Big Al în subiectul Swanage Railway | Spring Steam Gala | 27th-29th March 2026.

    Went to the gala on Sunday primarily for the J94 visitors but also to ensure I had a run behind the two flat tops and, of course, the T3. An early ticket office conversation partly reassured me about whether the T3 was running. It seems that...

    Well, in spite of my lack of enthusiasm for either headboards or "Austerities", I decided to go to Swanage on Saturday, which was by far the best day of the three days of the gala weather-wise, in spite of the strong winds to which other posters...

    Here is my account from a mostly sunny, but very windy, Saturday if anyone is interested! [MEDIA]

  7. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Alex Productions în subiectul K&WVR Steam Gala 19-22 March 2026.

    The way I've heard it is that Tornado or an A4 are too heavy. Union of South Africa has been to Haworth once but they had to get special permission to allow it as a one off. All the same it confuses me all this as Scotsman has run on the line...

    Ahem... 34046? 34092 was based there for many years too.

    60009 visited on more than one occasion and 60532 at least once. I can remember seeing them in Haworth or Ingrow yards but not actually working trains. I also understand that the headshunt at Oxenhope is to be extended in the near future.

    Loaned to the K&WVR from 1973 to 1975. Had a splendid trip up to Oxehope and back behind her late one day on an otherwise almost empty train.

  12. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui DerekTrotter în subiectul Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.

    When I visited a few weeks ago, I found Bolton Abbey station, neat, tidy and a huge car park! The office and cafe staff were equally helpful. However the railway now does seem largely set up for dining style trains of all types at various times...

  13. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui acorb în subiectul VT: The Shap Mountaineer with Tornado - 28/03/26.

    You definitely picked well. VT are one of the few operators that are still organising real enthusiast tours, probably only 2 or 3 a year. They know what we want and deserve our support. At the end of the day it was the catalyst behind the setting...

    Another shot at a very busy Stafford, having run along the slow lines from Crewe, at Stafford it was crossed into platform 1 because the customer lifts were out of action on platform 4, the usual slow line platform for southbound charters, before...
