Ah, my mistake. At a glance one would put it down as a taper boiler simply through familiarity with GWR 20th century practice, but I remember that...
I think you all know that beyond a very few ancillaries, that are often moved between locos both now and then, a Dean Single would not be...
I think the GCR and the GWSR are probably the two most likely to face anything like this - and I have no doubt that public opinion would not sway...
I hope that my first comment has not been construed as negative. I considered some of the negative points, but finished with "can't wait!" - I'd...
I'd heard about this on the grapevine a good while ago. It's obviously a completely heart over head choice - the engine would be of only...
The local Welsh appeared to be the ones with legitimate concerns - the farmers and suchlike. The NIMBY's seemed English to a man.
Behold! Fictitious Liveries
After the fun I had Underground, I'm having a good think about these Overground runs...I must say I'm rather taken with Sarah Siddons.

I'd be happy, even pleased to see a locomotive represent the Barry part of the heritage story. It deserves telling. 92245, a large locomotive in...
So because a loco is from another country it doesn't matter? If there are plenty of a particular class of loco around, it should not matter...
On the GW, with Acceptance Lever working your lever unlocks his starting signal and locks yours, whereas with Direction Lever working your lever...
I'm going to make a different suggestion - why not something industrial? (Yes, RH No.6, your presence reminded me). As far as I can recall, there...
It was good to see the railway making efforts to accommodate those with, for want of a better word, "genuine" issues - local farmers having to...
I visited the LTM the other weekend, and read there that the 4-4-0Ts had to have their tanks drained after two round trips because of the...
Re: 71000 You may as well give up now Ralph, you're clearly not cut out for this railway enthusiasm lark...
There is apparently a hand-held Swedish version of ERTMS that may prove the saviour of heritage operations. It's all a case of miniaturisation,...
Ah, thank you!
