Frogive me if I've missed something, but how long will the Austrian loco be staying on the W&L? It had been on my "to do" list to go up and see it...
Well, I don't know most of the individuals currently involved in running the museum so I guess I can't really comment. But I would gently point...
Well, I'd certainly agree that there are some engines which should be steamed and some which shouldn't, so thus far we agree. But you seem to be...
At the end of the day, the NRM is first and foremost a museum, not a heritage railway or an engineering company. I think they do recognise the...
Not at all - thank you for keeping us up to date and patiently answering all our questions! I only regret that it has been so long since I...
Going slightly O/T here, but I have always wondered what L&B rolling stock would have looked like in LSWR liveries, assuming the line had been...
Indeed. Whilst I regret the loss of the old depot from a historic point of view, it must be conceded that the new building is very nice! Forgive...
Well done to the Bluebell for making a sensible decision. Having a disciplined collections policy is vital for any museum or heritage organisation...
I'm sorry if it comes across that way - that isn't my intention. There's every reason to believe that a unified GCR can, and will work. I was only...
TBH, personally I'd be looking less at the amount of metal a group has cut, and more at their organisational structure and, above all, their...
That would certainly be the best and simplest solution for all concerned.
That's just it - people have different expectations when they go to a heritage railway. I volunteered as a Ticket Officer on a miniature railway...
I must say, that would be my preferred option. But then, I am not the one who would have to pay for it! :-P
IIRC the L&B crews found Lyn's American design features difficult to get used to, so that probably influenced the thinking.
AFAIK none of the BMR locos have yet visited the FfR. Personally I'd love to see one (or both!) of the Baldwins let loose on the WHR, but I...
With respect, I disagree. Two separate railways trying to share a station at Loughborough Central is just going to confuse potential passengers....
Well, at least that's one thing we can agree on! :D It would certainly be interesting, and it could probably be done Fairlie easily (groan!)...
On the contrary - I (genuinely!) think that it was charming and characterful, and I would love to see it again. Apparently Amberley have sworn...
Thanks as ever for the detail, Tim. It is a difficult balancing act with liveries: it is nice to have variety, but it is also good to be able to...
Does anybody know what locos will be running at the NNR this week? I'm in East Anglia at the moment and am particularly keen to see the Y14 or B12...
