    I disagree. I can think of no reason why they would not run a full steam service if they had a fleet of serviceable locos. The intention is there but the fact is that there are no longer the resources available to deliver this. I think that they...

    Maybe, but think of how many thousands of miles it clocked up going nowhere when it was a working exhibit on those rollers. And all that with negliable maintenance. It could be the highest mileage MN in preservation:) Peter

    I think there are two separate conversations going on here, which are being elided, not necessarily helpfully. One is the “is it prudent to run steam in the current weather conditions?” question. That is clearly a local decision, based on the...
