I was planning to visit on Thursday (24th July) to sample the scheduled Pacer service but now I see it's been upgraded to the Swedish Railcar,...
Congratulations on a swift and efficient repair. Very impressive! I'll visit as soon as the (presumed) initial rush and crowds die down a little.:)
Looks like most of England and Wales will be getting at least some heavy showers this weekend, so hopefully most railways will be able to run...
Good question. I just blew up image 7 from the "Salehurst section 2" link above and peered at it for some time, but I can't see any trace of...
It's good to know that they still want to use physical stock, rather than generating it all with CGI+AI.
I spied three in a field next to the ELR just north on Thursday, two appear to be completely disconnected. You can see them on Google maps (link...
You might be lucky, if the Robertsbridge link opens as scheduled in 2028. If it was purely up to the RVR, I'd say they'll surely make it - but...
The quote you are replying to (and, I think, all the other replies to it and quotes of it) has had the names removed, but your quoting it means...
Fortunately for the GCR the fire was on the side of the building furthest away from the railway. I hope no airborne burning debris landed on the...
Yes, it's off my list for this reason. I'm not fussy about most heritage railway aspects (traction, location, length, scenery etc.) but I do have...
I wonder if the forecast showers will be enough to rescue the MNR steam gala next weekend?
As far as neighbours of the GCR are concerned, I think the relevant one is Preci-Spark Engineering (the route goes partly over their car park if I...
Delightful indeed. I enjoyed the branch for the first time just 9 days ago. Bagged a front seat in the DMU. :) Starting from Loughborough...
With some short lines, you've barely settled down before the journey's over, but to me, the KWVR feels more like an 8+ mile line than a 5 mile...
Always been "Scarbs" for me! :) I miss the direct EMR summer service from Nottingham. :(
Some very good shots of the Robertsbridge Junction station area in today's programme - all looking most impressive!
I'm obviously missing something here! The post I was replying to says it leaves Duffield at 07:20, I was wondering why it doesn't leave *later*,...
The RVR is to feature on "Great British Railway Journeys" tomorrow (8th April 2025). There was a brief shot of Michael Portillo operating the...
Just out of curiosity, is there some reason it isn't timed for (say) 0740, to connect with the incoming mainline service from Derby/Nottingham?
I watched it on mute (my Chromebook's sound is always muted by default), and it's fine with no music or commentary, it still gives you a good...
