Ah yes, the late Spencer Flack, and a legendary set of warbirds. Regards, Dan
A very good post streuth, but there is something that I am a bit confused with concerning the missing core plug. The MHR website close-up of the...
In which case, the temporary reform will still take one unit as the the number. In that case it would be 365505 as that constituted the majority...
Nominally the end vehicles are the 'unit' numbers and centre coaches can be reformed to create a whole unit. Regards, Dan
I would have thought that the current supply to the 3rd rails would have been switched off for the event, except where it is needed to perhaps...
This would seem to suggest that the gauging issues surrounding ex-LNER designed locos from passing through Kent has been fixed? Regards, Dan
Hang on! You don't tend to paint the smokebox and saddle in the same colour as rest of it unless the whole loco is painted black. Methinks someone...
Don't forget that a nameplate counts as a change to rolling stock, therefore a metal plate requires more assurance that it won't fall off. As it...

I saw something in Heritage Railway Magazine about NRM+ costing in the region of £20 Million and that Lottery funding would be sought. Regards, Dan
I can't see the MHR spending a substantial sum of money on 73096 with so little time to recoup that investment. I expect that they will get a new...
Is there any way that a whole site can be protected from adverse development? Similar to listing a building but instead it would be the land and...
Yes, because it is used by WCRC as their London operating base. I don't think that there is room anymore for the GWRPG, let alone the GWS to move...
