Yes the four Merchants line up was mentioned in a recent Steam Railway article by Stephen Evans the WLHRT chairman. No official announcements yet...
I'd have thought it unlikely that 31874 carried the same boiler throughout its 39 years service life. So the misalignment explanation seems...
So it must be the original 31625 boiler which had the patch that currently sits in 806's frames, as that boiler was very heavily overhauled by an...
I suppose re: hire of a locomotive. It depends on 34007 being finished next year. I did read that Riley's were still on target to complete their...

That's correct 30506 previously carried the later "Ferret and Dartboard" logo.
They certainly do have very real more pressing issues to attend to. 34105 discussion can be parked up in the Nat Pres headshunt.
Re:34105 Does the bill of sale receipt that Mr Dai Woodham would have handed over to the railways representative still exist to this day? It is...
Yes I think that the agreement allows the MHR 10 years use, before SLL can then determine freely where it runs subsequently after the next...
I visited the railway Easter Saturday, trains seemed very well loaded and the Easter Bunny train was pretty much every seat full. I noticed 506...
The disposal of 73096 in April 2024 to a private buyer is confirmed in the latest PLC accounts uploaded to Companies House this week.
Well that depends on whether there is still ongoing dialogue between the two parties involved. The last time I heard something from someone close...
I believe that a conversation with the MHR team did take place. It was mentioned in "The Packet" members magazine last year that a meeting was...
Interesting that they have to cut open the boiler again, to replace the crown stays. It seems a drastic measure. Is the boiler of fundamentally...
Yes think it is at Lower Woodhill Road, Bury. The site i think, was previously occupied by Veolia waste management. One of the refurbished...
Once 34081 has moved Up North. The county of the Red Rose will be host to five Spam Cans, no less. 34007- Under overhaul at Rileys 34067-...
Lovely Jubbly. I missed 34070 so i can get my unmutalated Bulleid fix later in the year on the MHR.
I'll have to keep a lookout for SA Smith Low loader passing through Pinhoe next week then. Thanks for the heads up.
I partly agree. Although overhauling 850 gives the MHR a USP with the Lord Nelson which can be hired out for galas ect. There will likely be two...
499`s wheelsets are now in Ropley yard, so a rewheeling this summer or Autumn is possible. Front bogie is all but complete and the copper firebox...
