The difficulty there is that the "pot" gets eroded by inflation. Another way to look at it would be to take your carriage requirement and overhaul plan. For example, suppose you aim to have 25 operational carriages and also aim to overhaul a...

I think that the 71000 crew who put in the long hours to effect the repair need a little bit more than just a mention. A big round of applause at the very least

Picking up on this point about high-end dining. The Bluebell's Pullman dining train is high end. We have made a strategic decision over the years to concentrate on 1920s (rather than 1950s) Pullmans, because the ambiance is better. But bear in...

I’ve heard rumours it’s going to be fitted with a super efficient set of condensing apparatus and converted to oil firing for the purpose. The coaches will also be fitted with underslung oil tanks to give it the necessary range. I’ve also heard...
