Good news from Clan Line and the MNLPS. <BJ> ''We're ready, the engines prepared and we shall see you all tomorrow for the ACE!'' [IMG]

Regarding the train's name, I thought a similar thing yesterday when 34046 took the so-called 'Golden Arrow' from Southall to Canterbury and back, via Redhill - hardly 'The Golden Arrow' of yore, but looked splendid nevertheless.[ATTACH]

silversteellady liked torgormaig's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
I was on the first train that day, aged nine. It was the only railway event that my dad ever took me to - and here is my ticket (actually my dad's in all probability) to prove it[ATTACH] A day I remember well Peter

silversteellady liked WorkingPressure225's post in the thread Bluebell Railway General Discussion.
I would argue that the event will be even better than the Bluebell 65 event last year - not least because there’s 9 engines running over the weekend! Can’t wait for people to see what’s in store for this one… ;) Arguably the best bit of the...

Confirmed that Kalahari has completed her first full line passenger run today. Looking forward to sampling this fine looking machine in action.

silversteellady liked Steve's post in the thread North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion.
If 80135 takes water at Grosmont in the down direction it should be good to get to Pickering if there is no untoward event but it will be close. There was a prime example of this a couple of years ago with 80136 when the Ashpan sprinkler was left...

I don't think that 80135 has ever worked through from Whitby to Pickering, certainly not regularly. It only worked a handful of Whitby - Glaisdale shuttles in May 2003 and a Christmas shoppers special to Middlesborough in December of that year....

silversteellady liked 35B's post in the thread V2 4771 Green Arrow to return?.
Indeed. My point, given the persistence of the view (myth?) that the monobloc is irreparable, is that the means of repair or replacement can't assume that a fabricated replacement would be acceptable.

You know, this beast was way ahead of its time, and ended up being just an awkward footnote in KESR history, but would be very useful today, as well as authentic. [ATTACH] (Credit: Charlie Verrall on Flickr) If anyone ever proposed a new-build,...
