Is there a chance that things might improve if/when the former Eurostar platforms are brought back into use?
And presumably, once 178 has been given new cylinders, not a lot else will need doing to it as it has been treated very gently due to the cylinder...
Best ask Ian Riley. I doubt if anyone on here can give a definite reply at this stage.
Thank you for your replies, Gentlemen. My reading of your comments is that if I avoid Thomas or similar, I am likely to have as good a time on the...
Please could you enlighten me? When it's not a Thomas event, what makes the ELR so much more like a theme park when compared to other heritage...
No snow this Saturday, but it looks like another superb day according toi the Met Office. I wish it wasn't a 600+ mile round trip from here!...
A while back, I started a thread on Pre-grouping LMS 4-6-0s as I was interested to know how good they were after borrowing a book from our local...
But is that variety due to necessity rather than by choice? Both the GCR and NYMR were part of the LNER and,especially given that only one LNER...
Worcester-Malvern-Hereford is a lovely line, with GWR Lower quadrant semaphores all the way from Shrub Hill to Malvern Wells, lovely scenery and a...

So was I and I must say, my reaction to subsequent events regarding Tornado has been one of sadness, not criticism. Indeed, were I not already a...
It takes a lot more than a coat of paint to ruin this graceful engine! :)
A lot of anger has been expressed regarding the NRM's custodianship of 20th century locos which have run recently in preservation - and indeed,...
It already seems to be happening. Several single-engine-owning groups are making some sort of arrangement with one of the principal main line...
The article does quote an NRM spokesman as saying "If other organisations wish to borrow Sir Lamiel, then we would encourage them to submit a...
Thank you as always for your comprehensive reply, sir. Yes, I am certainly keen to travel, although I rarely book on more than one trip per year...
Some good comments here with which I agree (and also with Simon's post). To start with, May I reiterate a point I made earlier - the Saint has...
Wandering Willie wasn't a pacific but an NBR 4-4-0. Still, you're right to suggest that the LNER provides the richest crop of strange names - at...
