Another one for an increasingly crowded main line market! (or it will be if all the other group's plans come to fruition). I think they would have...
Would have thought that the DHR is a tad more scenic an d operationally more interesting, for starters! Cairns to Kuranda perhaps another?
Didn't 4144 last visit the KESR in 2020? Wasn't that the year of Covid lockdowns? A lot of railways saw traffic figures down that year, so a...
For simple souls like me, what does a type 4 diesel produce in kVA terms?
This is a genuine question, to which I don't know the answer - how common are industrial generators with an output equivalent to that of a diesel...
They were out yesterday as well. I don't know what these services are. I believe that the boiler is that from 80135 and is going away away to...
Even though the Ukraine gauge is different, it would surely not be difficult or lengthy to mount the bodies on a crude, purpose-built low-loader -...
I think you are probably in a minority there, then. I suspect most of us thought it was on the MHR because Mr. JB didn't have any say in the...
But.... do you mean the next loco to be sold or restored? If "restored", do you mean cosmetically, or to running order? If you are talking about...
If you have a couple of each, might you think about letting 1/2 go? And put the money into doing whatever - cosmetic or full restoration - of the...
It's an interesting suggestion, but one that would have to be paid for somehow, and I don't think the owners of 30830/30841 have the resources...
I think the whole discussion is already there if you only read back a few pages!
What makes you think that tourists will not want to travel in "old" carriages - surely the heritage nature of the line will be part of it...
That's all fine and dandy for the GWSR, but we all know that we're not talking "one size fits all" arrangements here, so I'm not sure what your...
Is it just me, or does it look to anyone else as though that boiler diameter is a bit small for an A2?
The question then becomes what made them stop - was it fear of, or a threat to remove the loco? If it was the first and no threat was issued ,...
Quite so, goodwill is important, but the MHR have a strong hand here, providing the majority shareholder actually wants to see it back in working...
That seems a bit extreme- surely the sensible thing would be to try to secure a watertight legal agreement with the owner? Other railways do it...
Nothing like as many times as 62005, which is on its 4th set of new tyres now (I think - could be +/-1!).
We had this discussion on the NYMR forum a few years ago - it is termed "management by walking about". An excellent practice that should be...
