I don't think it's just that. The A1 trust has had a good relationship with Ropley since Tornado first steamed really. Ropley's reputation for...
I can assure you that my dismay stems from the fact that I was asked to give my hard earned money and vote under false pretences. It also stems...
He is head of the Royal Scot Loco trust too. They may be counting that loco as "his"
The thing that makes me LAUGH about the whole situation is that the PRCLT actually thought they'd get away with it. From what I can see they had...
That is positive news indeed. Heres hoping the project gets an ideal home. Whether you love stds or hate them, proper new build projects like...
Perhaps that would be something the chaps at the MHR could advise them on, show them who to ask give an idea of costs, etc. I would imagine it...
So the question remains, where? There has to come a point where one wonders whether or not it would be more commercially viable, if not...
Exactly that Sheff. I love the idea that The Mid Hants, Swanage and Bluebell are somehow the only places worth building a locomotive in the south...

The tins bought for Cheltenham are labelled "Malachite Green" for what it's worth. I Don't know if that is just the name on the order or not, but...

Not only that, the Jubilee had done more miles, but less thermic cycles. When you compensate for the two I would imagine the locomotives need for...
I sort of agree however I don't think its how many cycles on base value nor is it how many miles performed on base value I think it is a...
I do "read the books" and I also read the statement. She may have done less miles but as has been rightly pointed out shes done more thermic...
Well I cannot speak for the trust but I would assume that replacing the plate is precautionary given that they cant 100% guarantee that it wont...
I can see why you'd think that to be honest with you chap but if I may respectfully offer an alternative perspective? My gut feeling tells me...
They've not given a timetable, just a list of order. That's all. The U class has to be in steam when the Bunch contract ends as per the terms of...
Perhaps the words I chose were a little misleading my apologies. I'm not privvy to the exact nature of the contracts between the MHR and the...
