Ripped the tyres to shreds forcing the unit up the branch line have they? No surprise there.
At least as importantly there was also major shakeup in the leadership (both overt and covert) of the GCR. The malign influence which the previous...
Personally I won’t be making any further contributions until I see a sensible, thought-through proposal for running a meaningful service across a...
It isnt even remotely close. The only thing thats closer is Loughborough sucesfully pinching the main line connection off of Ruddington Nothing...
Trust me, it will speed up unification. Michael Gregory had zero, zip, nada interest in reunification or running a preserved railway north of the...
To be fair to him, Michael Gregory was more than the MD, he WAS Cromwell Tools. He literally built it up from nothing, and made it into a...
That’s the nice thing though. Money may give you leave to act like a spoiled child, but it can’t always do everything. It appears that in this...

I wouldn’t bank on that. This loco is not being sold because the vendor needs the money, they have chosen to sell it specifically to these...
I don’t see how you arrive at that conclusion Al, Michael Gregory has a listed personal fortune around the £500m mark. I don’t see him, or his...
Fingers crossed, but I suspect that much depends on how intransigent Michael Gregory is feeling, and how determined he is to ensure that the GCR...
It is, as you say, an assumption that they paid in the region of £300k. It would make more sense if they had paid significantly less than that...
That supposes that the owner sold it for its market value, or close to it.
I’m given to understand that he tried to buy 70013 off the NRM, and then, when this was refused, in a fit of pique attempted to destroy the...
Regrettably retirement has not mellowed him at all. You’ll perhaps find it gratifyingly ironic that he was effectively given the same ultimatum...
