    Can I just say what a truly fantastic weekend that was, big well done to the gala planning team for bringing it all together. Victor, the recreations, always something moving, a truly fantastic way to kick off the 50th year of our wonderful...

  2. silversteellady liked Gladiator 5076's post in the thread Swanage Railway | Spring Steam Gala | 27th-29th March 2026.

    Bearing in mind I thought I may get to be able to do very little or even none of the gala, I actually managed all 3 days (at times). Lack of energy these days and shortness of breath means I am restricted to places basically flat and near the...

    Yes, from carting 5 Mark 1s of fresh air around, they're really getting custom now, and I applaud them for it

  6. silversteellady liked richards's post in the thread Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway Updates.

    Embsay has always been a railway running industrial tank engines with (mainly) mark 1 carriages. As a result, the mainstream steam enthusiasts tend to give it a miss. What they've achieved is amazing with what they've got, and they should be...

  7. silversteellady liked Romsey's post in the thread WCME & CME 2026.

    As Acorb says, lineside access is very restricted these days. Nearly all lineside vegetation clearance is done in subsidiary worksites in a possession for something more technical. ( Unless it's green zone working over 2 or 3 meters back from the...

    Went to the gala on Sunday primarily for the J94 visitors but also to ensure I had a run behind the two flat tops and, of course, the T3. An early ticket office conversation partly reassured me about whether the T3 was running. It seems that...

    Well, in spite of my lack of enthusiasm for either headboards or "Austerities", I decided to go to Swanage on Saturday, which was by far the best day of the three days of the gala weather-wise, in spite of the strong winds to which other posters...

  11. silversteellady liked Alex Productions's post in the thread K&WVR Steam Gala 19-22 March 2026.

    The way I've heard it is that Tornado or an A4 are too heavy. Union of South Africa has been to Haworth once but they had to get special permission to allow it as a one off. All the same it confuses me all this as Scotsman has run on the line...

    60009 visited on more than one occasion and 60532 at least once. I can remember seeing them in Haworth or Ingrow yards but not actually working trains. I also understand that the headshunt at Oxenhope is to be extended in the near future.
