It could be either but if that's the offer then I would have not published the motive power. You can have too much of a good thing!
Exactly and if you ask the right people you will get a list of Bulleids attaining 100+ up to 106 mph.
I disagree. Nobody is doubting the 1938 data. We are simply re-examining it to discover that given what was available at the time, the claim is...
I am sure that @S.A.C. Martin will answer that question himself if he thinks it is necessary or has the time to bother. My view is that it's a...
I presume that the non stop run helps make the timetable work better. I don't see the point of it otherwise as the tablet exchange means it's a...
Isn't part of the recertification for the ML a detailed electronic analysis of the dimension of the loco. A scan, so to speak? And that is needed...
For access reasons platforms are moving as close as modern trains allow and the height is sometimes also being tweaked. That does rather...
I rest my case your honour. :)
Suggest you give it a rest as your comments are becoming as tiresome as you think mine are. Mayflower is a Class 5 so 12 plus a diesel is...
Of course not. Once the loco and load are known it's not rocket science to work out what will happen. All the recent CDL business has done is make...
Fascinating to compare two Bulleid Class 7s with similar loads on the same climb.
No I wasn't. If you can't follow the logic of what I say then it's pointless me trying to discuss it. I have never said that the diesel on the...
In the interest of balance, I think it's fair to say that even on the return leg our friend at the rear seems to be helping, Witness the clip at...
All facing uphill as normal
Well, it's a valid point of view but to be honest there's no way that Tangmere could have lugged the train and diesel around and also make up...
Two very wise comments. In any case, unlike the A1ST, that I assume was the implied reference, WCRC doesn't have to account to anybody other than...
Said hello to Beachy Head today. It's a magnificent and stylish loco. The engineers have done their maths well from the point of view of what it...
I think that, in truth, air con has moved on from when these vehicles were originally designed so what sits in Mk2 vehicles probably doesn't...
Now that's fighting talk.....but true, possibly! ;)
So you think I have an unfounded agenda running? Well it's lucky then that I don't and I haven't decided to really get started! :)
