The SVR boilershop is about to embark on two somewhat smaller, but traditionally built fireboxes, 82045 and the one for the Worth Valley Ivatt...
GAV106: I must have missed the fact that 82045's barrel has been rolled. I must study my members' newsletter more carefully! Update: Actually the...
The firebox dimensions for the 8F and Black 5, are almost the same, save for three sixteenth of an inch in length, and one eighth of an inch in...
Strangely, their website omits to mention the lack of a boiler, yet showcases the collecting of some small parts..... Time will tell with this...
Anyone notice the chap in the red top sticking his arm out on the teak set, was he wearing a mask of some sort? 46118
Perhaps time once again to bring this topic to the front and ask again if anyone knows if the group are any nearer to obtaining an 8F boiler from...
Ian Riley posted images of the repaired and retyred wheelsets for 70013 loaded for transit back to the Midlands ( presumably Butterley) on 6th...
Many thanks, didn't think I had missed the move, but you never know! 46118

Three "toplights". Strange decision that by the SVR operating people. A non-stop run up the Valley is a rare happening and was bound to be...
If £25k is correct, and not a typo, then surely if the loco has a half decent firebox it would be attractive to an existing 28xx operator as a...
Thanks all for your responses. Sounds like the loco is in good hands. Regards 46118
As is usual with most things SVR and the internet, information about the new diesel depot at Kidderminster appears only sporadically, despite...
Did anyone attending the recent open days at Tyseley find any further information about what the future holds for this engine? I recall an...
Sadly looks as though "Abigail" is going to make Saturday rather wet, but at least those who do brave the elements should get a seat in some nice...
Apologies if this has been mentioned already, but the NYMR appear to be taking bookings for March 2016 for 60103 hauled trains. £38 return. 46118
Thanks, that's what I thought. KDR it is, by train. Kje7812: If I might pose you a question please: The key to riding a good variety of trains on...
Yes thankyou,I do know that, but there are limits! One earlier actually. 46118
I suppose driving to Bridgnorth is another option, but what state the "field" car park now after the rain? Maybe not a good idea. 46118
08-40 ex-Hereford arrive KDR 10-06... SVR departure at 10-05. Just an unfortunate timing, so maybe 10-48 Auto to Bewdley, and then pick up...
