I wonder, then, if BP will be left at Carlisle for tonight? What a damn shame for all concerned Mark
Water top up for the A2, I think, before she takes the train back, presumably via Shap.
Great news indeed - thanks for the update :) Mark
The bottom line for the livery - "He who pays the piper calls the tune". There may even be a clause which says that she'll go back into apple...
I know, it seems odd, but as I understood it, at present you can't, for example, leave Grosmont towards Whitby from P2 or P3 until a train that...
Good to see D2051 being restored - she hauled both the last scheduled pickup goods on the Scarborough & Whitby line, and also the notorious...
Is that going to be the point at which the existing Glaisdale-Whithy section will be split into Glaisdale-Grosmont and Grosmont-Whitby sections? I...
It was 2012 then - I was with my wife & daughter on that trip :) Also, thanks again for the details of the track alterations. Mark
Oh phooey - that's a shame. Cheers for the clarification though. Don't suppose it mattered yesterday to not have AC in those Mark 2s, of...
Great report. Thanks. I had a Preston - Carlisle - Hellifield - Blackburn - Preston run with 60163 about 2014, IIRC, so any barring must have...
Now, I would say that the Fell was more of a "Near miss" than a failure. The concept was actually good - only run the engines required for a...
I've heard it said that the chimney from 77014 is still extant? Mark
ISTR discussions about using the chassis of 76077 as a basis for a 77xxx at one time. Obviously that's a non-starter now because 76077 is being...
Advertised as going to be built with a copper boiler too - much to the amusement of many :D
And a splendid aspiration that is too :cool:
How very appropriate that 80116's boiler at least lives on, and returned to its old stamping ground. As someone with a great interest in the old...
Whitby-Grosmont, whilst quite winding (hence the reluctance to send Pacifics to Whitby), is reasonably flat, so the real issue is additional...
Reported on FaceAche that a low loader is booked on the 14th to take Tornado to the NVR, so hopefully whatever was stopping the job has now been...
RTT shows it as starting off, still at 1418, as "Diesel locomotive, 420 tonnes", which doesn't sound as though 34067 is hauling it? Or is it a...
She'll be ready when she's ready, as the saying goes, but she'll be another long-lost NE area class, despite her green livery, to reappear. To see...
