    We are looking at squeezing in a run more towards the middle of the day, as we are aware of the inferred issue above. To be fair the Caley tank would have been on plenty of full line passenger trains when it visited in 2019 but for issues that...

    Much of the 'froth' appears to be from people who didn't actually attend!! o_O

    You could follow up with a "derelict railways" weekend then an early preservation weekend and culminate in a "festival of complaining" where apparent enthusiast arrive to complain about the fact there are too many people/wrong colour of engines...

    To be followed by a ''Beeching Closure Weekend"?

  6. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui oldmrheath în subiectul SVR General Discussion.

    It's clear to me that the SVR shouldn't have promoted the weekend. The whole idea of branch line trains is there's only a couple of people on them . That way the non-visiting public would be happy to know that the SVR faithfully recreated the...

  7. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui pmh_74 în subiectul Great Central Railway Spring Steam Weekend - 28 February to 1 March 2026.

    I wasn't there but I've seen a video of the Leicester North 'rough shunt' or 'incident' mentioned above. On a scale of 0-10 where 0 is "nothing happened" and 10 is "close the site and call the RAIB immediately", I would classify this somewhere...

    I did wonder how they were going to find a path between Bolton and Blackburn with plenty of single track and more service trains than in years gone by. Last run south was early on a Sunday morning. Such a shame.

    And given the number of families I saw it did a good job at that, mine included at 3 generations. The Auto Train BTW was a source of much fascination from my daughter (age 13) to my mum (whose 68th birthday we celebrated on the railway). I also...

    Correct, except i'd say we are totally not sophisticated! The engine is progressing on all fronts (boiler, Chassis, Cylinders) and an update will come at some point. Our website man is a little busy with real life, hence its rather useless state....

  11. silversteellady a plăcut postul lui Chris86 în subiectul Bluebell Railway General Discussion.

    I always find it amazing that 9017 seems to get slightly shunned. It's a remarkable survivor, and probably if it was based elsewhere would be a bit of a "jewel", whereas in the context of the Bluebell fleet, it seems to be less appreciated. I...

    I must admit, I had the same thought re. the dining train. It certainly limited one's opportunities to get haulage behind a variety of locos. No. 32 only worked one trip on the Sunday, and I couldn't get there early enough, so I completely missed...

    Mark Hopwood, MD of GWR, was in the cab of the Class 50 and posted on LinkedIn about some yobbos chucking a brick down off a bridge when they passed beneath at 75mph. It's caused a large dent beneath the window....

    Do these yobbos realise that they could be murdering someone?
