How many miles in total, and how many steam miles did you do last year? With how many locos? If you are routinely giving every loco a P&V after only a few thousand miles, then that sounds very wasteful - or else someone is forgetting to fill up...

Another problem they have is that people help the railway during the operating season and often take time off in lieu and save this up until the winter when there is not the operational urgency. However, this affects numbers during the closedown...

To operate the planned T/T they need one steam and one diesel to run to Whitby. I think Pebbles is the only one they have to fill the diesely bit.

Because every year it's the same story. They never get winter maintenance completed in winter. 92134's winter maintenence continued until just before the autumn gala last year. Even now they're still stripping locos apart that are needed in a...

I'm sure there is someone more in the know but from what I've seen and read below is my thoughts in no particular order. I suspect they will be a bit thin early on with the picture improving as we move into the season. 926 Repton - Waiting for...

[ATTACH] I don't think 80135 will be back this year, as the boiler is still a kit of parts. It does look very tight loco wise once again. 31128 is off to the Chinnor diesel gala the week before the season starts but I'm sure it'll be back the...

1. If they cant keep people on the railway who do they think is going to buy the 'donation fare'. They have made most of the traffic Pickering to Whitby (and return). To use the voucher you have to get off the train and use a shop or tea room...
