silversteellady liked 35B's post in the thread Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.
I visited Embsay in September. It was clear that the income on a normal termtime weekend operating day was almost entirely driven by coach parties and, talking to a couple of staff there, that the railway gets block bookings that are very...

The giveaway is that 52044 still has her Barton-Wright smokebox door, rather than the Hughes one fitted a few years ago. Personally, I think the old one looked far better, but maybe that's just me...!

Here is a picture of two of the gala stars that could have been taken today, but instead of being dated 22nd March 2026 the date is in fact the spring gala on 22nd March 1975 [ATTACH] Peter

Here’s my account from three days linesiding (Swearing at many brambles) during our Spring Gala this year if anyone is interested. A really enjoyable event and hopefully it turns a healthy profit. Was also my first video this year utilising my...

silversteellady liked 47406's post in the thread Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.
This was was also evident at the Hunslet gala last year when we visited, a single coach for "normals" and the rest of the train for the exclusive use of Caledonian Travel, even when they were not travelling!!! Which basically meant you had 1...

A brilliant day Saturday. Thanks to all concerned, Saint, Terriers, St4 and tank were amazing. Good time keeping always a seat available, organisers if you read this a Horsted set starting is a great idea, plenty of space on the train for all the...

silversteellady liked 3ABescot's post in the thread Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.
Much like my experiences, except that the staff were polite and friendly in their manner, but had nothing acceptable to offer us. From other posts they seem dominated by pre-booked coach trip and buffet car bookings so turn up on the day visitors...

silversteellady liked jasa76's post in the thread Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.
I called in today as I was passing by and haven't visited for a while. I'd parked at Embsay and was quite suprised that the car park wasn't that busy compared to previous visits so should have been an early warning sign. I'd tried looking at the...

silversteellady liked Rander's post in the thread Southall Toad 68766.
I believe it's to be the support vehicle for the 0-6-0ST Lindsay, which has previously been at Southall but is now elsewhere under overhaul. USA Tank 30064, under the same ownership, is also at Southall.

Didn't go up the yard yesterday, due to the need to stare at the back of my eyelids for as long as possible! Normal service should be resumed next week...... In the meantime, a few more from the Nikon shoots & running day....
