    Four infrastructure updates, covering this winter's track relaying project at Black Hut. This is the area that was subject to a 5mph TSR which, although fairly short, came at an operationally very inconvenient place about mid way between Horsted...

    From conversations I suspect a pot maybe being stirred here, unless............... a benefactor has come in specifically to fund the return to steam of 6023

    One of the first myths the LNERCA dispelled in its early days was that teak was an expensive wood, although it has become more so since then, and a decent stock of both heavy structural timber from the either side of the heart wood from logs cut...

    I would love to know whether longer-term points such as these receive any attention at operating company board meetings, or if they are all focused on shorter-term operational questions, such as 'what kind of events can we do, and focus our...

    I think that your last sentence is prime in the matter. The NYMR has a track record of not spending money on locomotives and rolling stock and running those it has into the ground. We have already discussed and come to the conclusion that a 30...

    The 1999 regulations are singularly silent on the need for crash pillars. The NYMR exemption from reg 4 does, however, make reference to crash pillars. I quote: The Company must ensure that the Rolling Stock: (i) have buckeye couplers fitted...

    So like the Jacobite saga! The ORR think that has the same risk as a 125mph 4-track railway sadly.

    As Steve points out the 1999 regulations are the basic legal prohibition on the use of the teak set over the national network. It's also correct that for the purposes of those regulations the teak coaches are officially Mark 1's! The time...

    You are right in what you say up to a point. Which is why there is a need to think creatively about the marketable asset that is being sat on at Pickering. It ticks so many boxes if only there is the vision there to see this. Tom (@Jamessquared)...

    This reply just goes to show the complete inability of those in charge to even consider thinking outside the box. We have plenty of locos that cant run to Whitby but we still try to maintain and operate them. There has been an internal Pickering...

    I’m all for its use but I think it’s lack of 21st century amenities such as toilets and adequate heating needs to be well spelled out. Not everyone is as robust as us., (Assuming you fit that description. )

    So you either believe the Autocar should not run or it should be retro fitted with a toilet ?
