Very pretty little loco, yes. It seems a great pity that all that work was done on Fair Maid - including the fitting of air brakes - by a...
The outlines of "Bygones" have been posted - looks as if this year it'll be strongly related to the Platinum Jubilee Gala, with an emphasis on the...
Nice fantasy - but impractical. Sadly, SS "Blyth" is not in working order (and is not fitted with continuous brakes either). SRT are working...
