    Seems a bit of a Hail Mary, hoping for some deus ex-machina to sort things out. The contribution to the local economy/community is alluded to in...

    Vintage Trains 2025

    Thanks. I am a bit surprised that 5699 has not had the mods (which involved a new blastpipe top and mods to the chimney). The potential for carbon...

    Steam Locomotive Proportions, Ratios, and Equations

    Vintage Trains 2025

    BR made some effort to improve the Jubilees' steaming in 1956, comparing an improved single chimney and a double chimney and blastpipe mods in...

    North Yorkshire Moors Railway General Discussion

    Is this assertion based on preliminary 2024 results of the Bluebell? The PLC made a loss in 2023 (the last filed accounts) of over £300k (although...

    P2 Locomotive Company and related matters

    If you read the paper to the ILocoE, there seems to have been considerable scepticism about the validity of some of the testing, missing data and...

    P2 Locomotive Company and related matters

    The Locomotive, as an industry journal reliant on industry adverts, was inclined to be enthusiastic/uncritical in its descriptions. As to why a...

    P2 Locomotive Company and related matters

    So am I. The P2 material leaves more questions than answers. A mystery which no-one seems to explain is how the cams worked. I think in Caprotti...

    P2 Locomotive Company and related matters

    I think the Franklin poppet valve gear on the K4S 5399, the first loco to be fitted, was the so-called "Type A" i.e. oscillating rather than...

    34039 Boscastle WC class

    Is BLL a plc? It appears to be private, indeed the articles state on the first page "private company limited by shares". Setting that aside, at...

    Could well be the case although with due respect, I doubt if BLL and SLL would be viewed in the same league. As I said, some volunteers are...
