Thanks for the video but oh dear that was some serious shoving going on at Byfleet and New Haw. I was surprised to see this one was only 10...
So screaming and whooping is what makes them "notmals" is it? We crazy "enthusiasts" would of course maintain a respectful silence!
Oh yes of course - thanks! It wasn't immediately obvious but I think the issue is that they don't stop where they used to. They used to stop at...
Just looking at the timings for Flying Scotsman's trip to Cardiff tomorrow. No doubt that it is 60103 as Realtime Trains carries a note saying...
Thanks for the explanation - that makes perfect sense.
I'm just curious to know why on most running days at the GWSR one of the steam locos is replaced by a diesel for the last run of the day. This...
I would suggest that one of the 3 standard coaches is the brake on this occasion. Seriously - it seems like a lot of unnecessary froth has been...

Is it? At the recent steam gala they managed to put together 3 rakes of stock but this included 3 First Opens, at least 2 of which came from the...
Not too many reports from this event so far so let me add my piece. A lovely day in the Cotswolds - the sun even graced us with its presence this...
Yes - remember that. Lot's of "shunt release" at Alresford and Alton as the loops are not long enough t run round. They also did it the previous...
One more question - do we know which way the locos are going to be facing?
Yes - but he went on the win that particular race if my memory serves me well!
Definitely 73096 and also I think 34105 as overhaul work on that seems to have stopped. I'm not sure there are any other complete locos there...
