    Does steam and diesel have a future?

    Does steam and diesel have a future?

    Does steam and diesel have a future?

    It's truly a pity that when these idiots glue their faces to the road, we can't just .. .. .. leave them there for several days. Noel

    Super Garratt

    East Lancs Railway

    It could also be a typo that the spell-checker didn't flag; these days, if people don't see a squiggly red line, they think it's OK. ('I'm going...

    GWR 94xx Pannier Tanks, ex-Edward Thompson Thread.

    An interesting post, but it's a bit odd to find it in the 'Steam Traction' section! :-) Thread drift strikes again, I guess... Noel

    Oswestry Update

    I've just noticed the several unused frogs in the line in the foreground there. Will they be retrieved at some point (for use elsewhere - I assume...

    Current and Proposed New-Builds

    Well, clearly their model was incomplete (or inaccurate), since the axles did break! Now, it's true that: and maybe that's the whole answer, but...

    West Somerset Railway General Discussion
