My understanding is that it will be Kent again next year.
Some great video clips and locations there. Thanks. That was also a good set of clips to get a sense of what goes on with these dual power...
There's not much doubt that the Dover route works better for all. Aside from the better scenery out of the window the whole trip is a much more...
Not certain I agree with that. My guess is that quite a lot of people on this forum do travel on heritage charters whatever the motive power,...
The interesting thing about this trip is that it looks as though the price point is the same even though we know that the hire charge for steam is...
To be honest I'm amazed that shortages of appropriate steam haven't surfaced sooner than this. We can but hope that a few heads are knocked...
I know it's an illuminations special and a day out in Blackpool but I'm not certain why the outbound train needs to be that early. Maybe VT needs...
Ditto from me. At least the rubbish rolling stock can be (partly) hidden amongst the stunning landscape and colours.
And having seen 53809 at work recently, both visually and mechanically I think I know which one of the two has the edge on condition even though,...
Just a 'heads up' message to please keep discussion on the WSR only and not whatever arrangements may or may not be in place for the overhaul of...
It is a pity that we don't see Standard Class 5s on the main line as they are also a 'really useful engine'. View from 2.5 min if interested. [MEDIA]
It seems to me that a decision was made, probably by the current chair, that the WSR would become a GWR railway with just GWR locos. None of this...
As already said, the press report of what the independent auditor had to say about the WSR accounts seems to be the telling point. I stand to be...
Despite the need for a diesel because it is leaf fall season, it really is remarkable that Clan Line was left to get on with it through Penge....
An interesting debate. I'm surprised that the main line connection with a direct link from London to the Bluebell doesn't 'trump' all discussion...
When I last looked it was the only one so someone at the WSR was quick out of the blocks :)
Well, if you take a look at the Railway 200 web site and look at the map of linked events it seems to me that the WSR is well up to speed. Go...
The elephant in the room surfaces again. The trip you describe didn't need a diesel other than to service the air-con and my understanding is that...
Given the load, the whole train should have been well within the capability of any Class 8 but at the end of the day it would be down to the crew.
Not sure it's broken down. It was sent out 25 early at BAS just in front of the charter and the ACE looks as though it's trundling behind. Seems...
