We travelled on Saturday, taking the 1304 from Wareham to Corfe Castle. It wasn't busy - 40 people max - but it was the time of the coronation....
I had a terrific afternoon at St Blazey yesterday. Sensibly managed access to the turntable and a great crowd. The roundhouse would make a...
Apologies for the pejorative adjective. But, given the care to presenting the steam fleet in as authentic a condition as possible, it's a shame...
Looks rancid with those WIPAC light clusters on the front, hope they get rid of them and restore the route indicator blinds.
No. The LEZ is for road vehicles.
First trains of the year on the Harbour Railway? Hopefully the New Cut branch will reopen this year, the long-running repairs to the river wall...
The timings look pretty spot on to me. My mother lives near Brockenhurst - a 1005 train from there gets to Wareham 1048, Swanage train arrives...

Sorry if I’ve missed this, but when are the next trains operating onto the Mountsorrel branch from the GCR? I haven’t been to the GCR for a few...
The dockside cranes outside the M-Shed are now listed buildings, and interestingly, so is the track beneath them. “designed for utility, but...
Have a look at this 15 second clip of FS passing a Bournemouth Junior School on its way to Swanage. Lovely stuff!...
I think these locos were originally imported for a proposed theme park attraction, a plan which never came to fruition.
Dare I suggest that if the present company are unable to make the finances work, the best use for the Minehead branch would be a public railway to...
The smaller lines, in my opinion, are better when the catering is subcontracted. The East Somerset offer is hugely improved now it's (presumably)...
