I'm not concerned, I'm curious! Was it just the slam doors that got all Mk 1 emu stock condemned? I always understood that there were issues...
I did read it and it didn't enlighten me! I saw about adding anti-telescoping measures (presumably lower shelf brackets on the buckeyes) but I'm...
Sorry, I've no idea, although I can't remember having seen a photo of it carrying a pump - and I think I would have noticed if it was fitted...
I wonder if the air pump was fitted when it ran at the DSR (P&DSR as it was then), although I can't see why it was needed, unless it worked...
Don't think anyone answered my earlier question - these are Mk 1-based vehicles, are they not? How well do their ends comply with modern...
That was my first thought too9, but it may be the case that a separate pot of money is involved, in the form of the Trust that bought 46115.
I doubt if Whitby has acquired the "wrong type" of point crossings, but the loco is privately owned, and the owners may not wish to go to the...
If it is going on a restore and run agreement, it's hard to see how the 80064 Group can lose out as the onus will on the WSR to restore it before...

I see from Facebook that Statfold Barn have donated their four ex-Lynbarn/L & B carriages to the Bala Lake, to provide extra carriages for when...
Is that a good thing? One thing that put me off going to the GDSF in more recent times has been the ever-increasing number of "market" stalls one...
I wonder how much interest there will be in the USA for a lot of the British railwayana, though, so the cost of repatriation might be offset by a...
As 21B notes the judgement as to what is in the best interests of the organisation is ultimately one for the trustees. In extreme cases that can...
There wouldn't be there's no-one left there, afaik! A once very productive group of volunteers banished by the permanent staff. I just wonder...
I'm not fully conversant with what happened but I do know that the Levisham SM (one of those banned) works for NR on the signalling side, so I'd...
I haven't read the article, but there is some truth behind it. The Levisham Station Group have been disbanded, and some members banned, but the...
34010 was never restored at the NYMR, it was received at the railway in ex-Barry condition and was in the same condition when it was sold to SLL....
