I believe Tangmere may have failed yesterday with 871 being called to haul both trains this weekend. But yes I agree, wing and a prayer, but...
No that’s very true and I do concede that we are all limited by knowledge on that score. And I do very much hope the tide is turning up at 10A as...
As I say I can only go off what I was told, and tbh whether they were generalising it a bit too much is possible. I think we can all have a good...
I mean I will tolerate it when it’s due. And in the past it certainly has been due. But would you really fault a company who’ve given 100% every...
Nicely put. That’s definitely my downfall is I can’t put things in to decent words!
Would seem to be 44871 on both CME and NWCE this weekend for those heading out. “Riley International Rescue” the phrase used on Facebook. Tangmere...

I do wonder if it will actually be of significant use in the long run. I don’t know of any immediate plans for signalling upgrades on large...
Am I not allowed to have a good opinion of something? I’d happily travel with other TOCs and indeed would give my thoughts on them if they ran...
Could not agree more. People also forget staffing costs, etc. I reckoned on the Midland Pullman the other day we had 6 drivers at least. It left...
I was more referring to how Network Rail work out the loading not LSL specifically. I’m fairly certain as with water, Network Rail have standards...
That A2 looks the absolute dogs bits :rolleyes:
Tbf I have no idea on how they work out loading for steam tours. I can only base the above off what I’m told. But yeah your logic sounds about right.
I never doubted they’d been running CDL trains. I said with MK1 coaches to allow them to use their Vac Braked locos. Can’t deny that WCR run a...
I can just see the irate diesel fans, shouting at Gresley helping! :D
Don’t let Al here the 47 wasn’t helping. He won’t believe you.
Newton Abbot water stop is fairly simple to explain….The calculation is that an engine uses 50 Gallons of water per mile covered. It must have a...
Im not exactly sure you can put much blame on LSL for a points failure. I mean I’m sure from their point of view the steam side ran well today...
You won’t regret it. It’s absolutely fantastic.
Not sure if there is a Midland Pullman page but thought it would suit on here :) Today was my 2023 Christmas present from my better half, a trip...
