I was planning to attend tomorrow but the wife has roped me in on equestrian duties. :(
My take on Sunday's proceedings. Not a lot of sun unfortunately. [img]2024-02-11 SPA VALLEY BARCLAY 0-4-0ST 2315 + CR 812 0-6-0 828 by KING COBRA...
If you’d got an hiatus hernia, you certainly would have heard and known about it. For what it’s worth, I’m aware of both uses of the word.
What a shame you weren’t timing the alleged 150 run with that Pennsy duplex mentioned earlier. :)
Agreed. Watching and recording double headed nighttime freights over the Jing Peng Pass in the depths of winter was a challenge but a fantastic...
Thanks. I’m sure I read in Bill Hoole’s biography of a similar feat.
Was that run with 60140 a Bill Hoole classic?
Claimed is not the same as authenticated and the plural of anecdote is not data.
And equally bizarre to imply that no engineer was influenced by their peers or predecessors, as has happened in this thread.
Ah, back in the days when the 4-COR saw a lot of use behind the continental locos.
It was in service in the 80s but not sure when it went out of traffic.
Some of us are actually there. :D
Hopefully in the firebox. :)
Shibanxi. Never got to visit the line on any of my China trips sadly.
Was that a double chimney/Kylchap V2? I ask because the Peppercorn A1 was so fitted.
1936?
Oh for heaven’s sake. It’s a bit of news, not an entry in a photo competition.
35006 will be a rose among thorns so leave her alone.

Lovely patina on that.
