    Don't worry too much about the prefix letters before the 'B'. Others will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think BR built wagons were all given a 'B' prefix and this is the number that will/would have been on the wagonplate and also painted on...

    As I understand it, there was a limited amount of upgrading done during the early part of WW2 with a view to enabling the K&ESR to be used as a diversionary route. I've not seen details of any such use (not so say it didn't take place under the...

  7. أعجب DavidW بمشاركة 21B' في موضوع Mid Hants Railway Operational Matters.

    I took a break from reading the forum. The debate doesn’t seem to have moved or improved over much. I think you are splitting hairs that aren’t there to be split. The railway has accepted a 150/2 on the same basis as it accepted the DEMU. The...

    Can it not be both? 15x traction has been a massive part of the railway story from the 1980s, including the Southern Region. Although not specific to 150231 itself, 150s have regularly worked to Brighton, Portsmouth, Southampton, Weymouth,...

    Needless to say having kept an eye on proceedings Eddystone went out for test runs this afternoon, which I only discovered when I drove back from collecting my car from its MOT and noticed it was not in Swanage. A webcam check told me is what at...

    It's quite possible the trend will be in the other direction. Volunteering is already in decline across all sectors . That's likely to continue not least because of later retirement and reduced pension expectations. Volunteers on heritage...
