I'm not actually convinced, or particularly bothered, either way, but it's hardly unfounded is it? Anyone can change a few things to make it...
So let me get this straight; you're old, you've been involved with the GWS for 20 years, you've been involved with more than one project, you've...
Cheers , I've waited years to see a photo of that! I believe it does, or at least did, have traces of its original OW&W or Wolverhampton paint...
Have to say, I did initially wonder why such a big issue is being made over this, it's hardly anything new. The 'Tornado-Super-Wonder-Machine'...
If I'm not mistaken, 5029 initially had twelve on - the diesel didn't turn up till after things had gone down the pan. In all honesty, I believe...
As with any engine, it's not just a question of how much steam the front end is taking from the boiler, but how much the fire is being provoked...
I think there's a scheme already underway somewhere, involving the crafting of some foreign tram into a Y6 lookalike, could be the same thing? I...
I'd suggest that the quality of 5043's performance has a more than a fair bit to do with the fact that it was being driven in a propper cut-off,...
Railcars were introduced from 1933, while the last railmotors weren't withdrawn till '35, so it may have happened, though pretty unlikely I...
To be honest the GCR isn't really a cure-all for mainline testing; whilst you can run up to 60, the line's length means that this can only be for...
But as Beesley already makes them, I can't see it being a problem? Although I do see on his site that only the Midland type is currently...
I quite like that, similar lines to the Great War display in the Imperial War Museum.
Very likely because Dennis is already involved with those particular lines. No, actually I didn't. I was in Hull. And that's beside the...
It's not about stopping people from ultimately doing anything, be it running the engine, or being able to see it, but I do feel that during the...
It's got the rest of its boiler ticket to be a roaming ambassador, right now, when the interest is greatest, you want the people to be coming to...
I'm sure the mainline can wait. Better, I would've thought, to have kept the engine on site for say 12 months, and milked it for what it's worth,...
Flippin' 'eck, never saw that one coming! Hope it brings you some good publicity, and cash!
Interesting that the GWS should spend 20 years and £650k+ on this engine, only to send it away 3 months after it's completed. Perhaps it's a bit...
I've had a look but haven't been able to find any photos of P class with the ROD. It wouldn't necessarilly have been painted khaki; black seems...
Oh yes, and in just over a week you'll be able to see it up close and personal down at the D.I.D cot. (Sorry, plug...)
