Paul42 a plăcut postul lui Jamessquared în subiectul SVR Loco Newsy News / discussions.
Of course running an extensive service is expensive - but swapping steam for diesel isn't the panacea that some make out, because most of the costs of running the service aren't due to the traction. How much does your C&W bill decrease if you...

Just amongst Bluebell locos, in recent years we've had 73082 to the West Somerset Railway; 592 to Kings Cross and 34059 to Willesden. No 65 also ran on Network Rail under its own power (not towed) in connection with the rebuilding of Network...

The standard is one of honest, frank, communication - not what we saw last year. And of course it's welcome that Tornado is now running. I doubt that I or @Bikermike are alone in wondering about the ability of the Trust to meet it's own, self...

Delighted to see that it finally came right, but still wondering at the cost. I've worked on a few projects that have been a complete mess, but ultimately delivered (sort of) successfully, which has allowed the mess to be brushed over - while...

Yes but...... now that it is seemingly working so flawlessly, what was all the delay about in the first place? I cant help but feel that the jury is still out on the ability of the current management. I know that the original team were a hard act...

Brake force AIUI - there have been ballast deliveries, but not on this service. A Bluebell crew on the footplate of Sir Archie (but with mainline PTS). Tom

I seem to recall a few years ago when Camelot went to the WSR by rail, the WSR paid what the lorry move would have been and the excess amount for the rail move was paid by the Camelot Society, partly because they preferred not to have the lorry...

Er…. that’s the case with the 12 month version but not the one currently being employed by the NYMR. I believe @35B s suggestion was to keep the Gift aided fare at the previous £49.50 and make the non-Gift aided fare appropriately less (10%)...

Anecdote (even mine) isn’t data. My observation was specifically about one place too. The WHR already has a very limited timetable. I also separately said that we need to watch this year as it is the first that looks like it might be “normal”...

I’ll hold my hand up to that one. I put brasso on the whistle earlier in the week while cleaning the top of the boiler, within the LSL running shed. 60007 was moved outside on Monday and unfortunately a rainstorm on Tuesday reduced the shine and...
