The fact that it takes you to some large calendar page that you them have to click on a link to see what the timetable is. I much prefer what the NYMR used to be different colour dates on a calendar of the year, with all the timetables shown...

With through trains, passengers for Goathland are instructed to travel in the northernmost three coaches. If the train is terminating there it stands to reason that all passengers will be doing that. Four coaches will just fit in the platform....

As @std tank says, it was mentioned previously. The limit of the line at present is the signal at the north end of Goathland station, meaning there's no way of heading down the bank to run round. If they'd repaired the slip at the south end of...

When you read the numbers you do really get the feeling that the powers that be for this line are not in touch with reality. To repeat myself (and others) somewhat... Bridge 42 was known about long before the stoppage yet nothing was done in...

You would think that a fireman would know - The harder the engine is worked the harder he/she has to work:). Peter

Well, that surprises me - my entirely subjective experience is that 80151 seems lighter work! Tom

A Black 5 turns the scales at 125.5 tons, a 4MT tank at 86.7 tons. That’s a tad short of 39 tons the tank doesn’t have to move around (that’s about the same as a mk1 full of passengers) so will have to do a lot less actual work. They are both...

Selling Mulberries and Stape would be of no real benefit. Mulberries is in hock to Santander and Stape to the NHMF. It's the same with much of the railway.

The NYMR doesn't need the teak coaches; that's true, but they sure as heck should want them.

That has all been very quiet, which has to be unusual for such an event. I've seen nothing on what happened elsewhere other than a 'Swiss Cheese' happening and only a couple of third hand comments on what actually happened.

An interesting concept. The NYMR does hire ot the railway for filming, etc. so it would not be a huge step to hire it out for a gala.

I also think a few things need to be set out here. I don't believe anybody here has said it outright cannot happen. Like any proposal, the overall idea likely can be achieved. In fact, there is a scenario of mainline TOC operating a service...

I think it would require a nut and bolt assessment. It has spent time in Poland and I've heard some tales of what they did to keep them in service. Not sure now if it is 2253 but I've seen one with a left side coupling rod on the right, simply...
