You miss my point, "On a forum with many crossovers between the mainline and preserved lines" refers to the National Preservation forum. It is the...
For sure! Heresy for some but I like diesel heritage lines as well as steam. Accurately representing all aspects of historic railways from the...
Obviously, it is inevitable that "big railway" terminology will be picked up by heritage lines but it would be gratifying if, for example, a 1960s...
As I wrote "quite recently"!
Perhaps "consist" also could be dumped. I never heard that until quite recently.
I have just returned from a few days at Corfe. It was a pleasure to see trains operating again although I missed out on 80104 (running today)...
As a young student I worked as a conductor for about 8 months for Eastern National. We youngsters always shortened the strap on our Setrights to...

That's not the case in the UK. "3.3. Diurnal variability The UK wind resource shows a clear pattern of higher wind power output during daylight...
I would be far more concerned not to get close to 25kV than 750V. Obviously it is best to avoid both!
If you are suggesting that the growing volume of stuff being moved around the world is unsustainable, I agree.
I think worrying about rail CO2 emissions is misplaced at this time. The focus should be on aircraft emissions, both cargo and passenger. BTW a...
I travelled on them a few times in the early 70s but don't remember them so well as the 4CEPs, CIGs etc.. I was still grieving the end of Southern...
Wimp! :)
We all start as fools but some gain wisdom as the years pass.
Thank you. That's the first time one of my petty grumbles has had such a swift and gratifying response!
I haven't yet heard the sound of a Cl.69 but doubt I will find it exciting when I do. Nonetheless it would make a better soundtrack than that...
