That's good advice. I've already heard of items being 'listed' that are not the railways property to sell.

A reunion on the East Lancashire Railway of regular 'gricers' from British Rail's last steam hauled named train 'The Belfast Boat Express' which was 'Black 5' hauled until May 1968. Shame the ELR hadn't a 'Black 5' for us but such is life....

A most enjoyable day today, especially the morning's round trip with 4150, seen during a break at Hampton Loade. [ATTACH] 4150 was on the freight in the afternoon. Hopefully get some better photos of the guest locos over the next 3 days....

At lunch time the weather brightened, and we did quite well. [ATTACH] We began the week two fields away, and have now laid 16 panels in total. It looks like the week's target is actually 21 or 22 panels, so pressure will be on during the last day.

silversteellady liked Fireline's post in the thread Kent & East Sussex Railway.
Although not blameless, the Austerities don't give the track anything like the grief the USA tanks do. A Schools or an L1 would suffer from large driving wheels with not that much weight over them. A standard 4 tank has proved to be ideal in the...

silversteellady liked Wenlock's post in the thread Kent & East Sussex Railway.
I recall, probably 15 yrs ago, an occasion when the A set was hauled by two Terriers. Can't remember why. What I do remember was that after the first trip UP the bank, the driver came in to a classroom where a signalling course was in progress....

Absolutely gutted to be missing this! I personally much prefer smaller engines on the WSR, so this event is right up my street. The return of 4110, this time in operational condition, will be a really great occasion. It really is a case of right...
