  2. silversteellady liked Gladiator 5076's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.

  6. silversteellady liked Tintagel's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

    Whomever left £500k for Carriage restoration was very generous, I imagine that will fund at least one restoration of a coach from grounded body or unrestored condition.

    A quick update on the AGM / EGM. I didn't take written notes, so this is a flavour and if I have misinterpreted anything, it is my mistake! The substantive votes at the EGM were all very well explained by Keith Leppard (the new BRPS Society...
