    We had a cracking day out on the final day of what has been one of the best Galas of recent years. Everything seemed to work out really well for us. Arriving at Ropley just after 11.00 we had to park on the far side of the field. Fortunately the...

    There were also earlier fires between Ropley and M4M but a number of us lineside were able to extinguish them without causing much, if any, slippage on the TT

    Further discussion about how to resolve the 34105 situation here is unlikely to elicit any further information or provide a useful strategy to move forward as what is known will not be disclosed for what I hope are obvious reasons. May I suggest...

    I suspect there are oil pots on top of the slide bars, and the bean tins are a cheap and cheerful way to stop water getting in. Tom

    You may see “Dave” + diesel a bit more. Indeed if the Alton set is 3+PMV which might be enough quite a bit of the time, then Dave could probably manage that on its own.

    I am not sure that it is the long term plan to hold 35005 for galas and special events only. Whilst I would agree that it isn’t, and never was a suitable engine for ordinary service, needs must. 30506 we hope will be repaired and back in...

    Also worth highlighting that when travelling on the train between locations, it will often involve climbing down from the stock to the track away from platforms - something to bear in mind for anyone with mobility issues.

    Another excellent video from Will Stratford and the team at Watercress Line Productions. Link below. They are always a good watch. Definitely a cut above the majority of YouTube videos. The Lymington Branch A fireman’s story from the final...

    Yes I think that the agreement allows the MHR 10 years use, before SLL can then determine freely where it runs subsequently after the next overhaul. There was a rather large cash amount that the WLHRT held in a restricted account from the late...
